Write computer program code in Latex

The following comments are copied from the net:

To write a code in latex, you can use \begin{verbatim} \end{verbatim} environtment. A similar approach is by doing this

\usepackage{fancyvrb}
\DefineVerbatimEnvironment{code}{Verbatim}{fontsize=\small}

\begin{code}
c+=1;
\end{code}
