Is a molecule that contains genetic information in the form of a code or a sequence?

The code is in the sequence. In a DNA molecule which has billions of nucleotides, there are genes. It looks random to an untrained person. It would look something like ...AATCGCGATCGTCTGATCGTTTGCTAGC.... but somewhere along the sequence there will be a start and end codon (series of 3 letters). Between the start and end is the gene. Remember that DNA codes for RNA and the RNA will code for the protein. Think of it as a phone number. If there were billions of numbers such as ...76594948676849393841677205781732845895... there would eventually be the phone number. The start codon could be 486 and the end could be 817. Between that would be the phone number.
