I am currently writing a conference paper (an IEEE conf, if that matters) in which I include a piece of code. Pertaining to the license of the code, should I, at the beginning of the code, write something like
-- Author: Ton Ami, 2021.
-- License: MIT License. ------> this
-- Below is code to help you make a better world
...
Or should I just put the code without any license terms?
In any case, what would the license of the code be?
