The only code that I've written that has not been executed, was written as an adjunct to creating other code that was.

Please explain how code that creates other code was never executed, but the code that was never created by the aforementioned never-executed code, was, in fact, executed.

    I said it was an adjunct to creating code not that it created code.

    Specifically I occasionally write code just to clarify things in my mind, with the expectation that this clarity will aid with other code. Usually I use pen and paper for this, that is just comfortable somehow.
