Thank you.

This is what I understand so far:

- the maximal values is what is usually called data

Incorrect.  Total functions are maximal.

- the non maximal are what is usually   called code

Incorrect. `Non maximal' expressions are just expressions with embedded infinite loops or exceptions (or functions that yield such values when presented with defined arguments).

- in functional languages one can be given non maximal values (code) as input

Correct (sort of, se above). But not in the way you think. And only in non-strict functional languages.
