- package: A quantity of code that values its privacy, and tries to keep other code from trespassing upon its namespace by fencing all of its private belongings (variables and subroutines) into its own area. A variable or subroutine mentioned in the package belongs only to that package, even if there's another variable or subroutine with an identical name in some other package.
