Thanks...I've been through all the links but I can't seem to find it in this kind of format, just numbers and letters

That's certainly not the source code. It may be the binary, seen in some hex viewer though.
But then you most likely won't know if you look at Bitcoin original code or to a binary representation of a (random) photo, for example.
(For the more advanced ones, I know that exe starts with MZ, I just want to make a point)

Hey,

the answers you are looking for can be found here:

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
what does this code actually do for bitcoin? I just saw it for the first time and was amazed by the many code. I want to know what the code means. does it have a real function or not?

This is the github repository for Bitcoin Core. Bitcoin Core has several functions, one of which includes performing the operations of a full-node, i.e validating transactions and the blockchain, as well as communicating with other full and or SPV nodes.  It can also operate as a Bitcoin wallet, which I assume you have some understanding of.

Bitcoin Core is a direct successor of Satoshi's original bitcoin client, although it's certainly not the only full node software available.
