title: What makes a "production code"?
body: <p>I am a Research Scientist, and definitely the way we code is not considered "production code" that's prototypical code, but then what makes a production code ?
  Testing for scalability, ability to handle real time traffic and testing all edge cases ?
  But what else, for instance I also hear Python is less of a "production language" that Java or C#, what is the criteria for them to be production-able.</p>
  
  <p>Any books/references drawing this point home or to sublime it, would also be great!
  Thanks in advance</p>
