I just want to emphasize the difference between "code that was used to produce the results" and as algorithm that is the key element of the paper. If I can't reproduce the results because you're using methods that I can't reasonably find/replicate, then the paper should not be accepted. That's still true for code, and sometimes providing source code is the missing piece. That's definitely not what the OP is about.
