I had a question in my mind
-
My teacher told me, that if we work for someone or some company, to develop their application. The application is to be handed over only, not the source code. Is it true, that if someone hires me for a one-time software development, that I should only (at the end of the project) hand over the application (in an executable form) and not the source code for the project?
The shit I complain about It's like there ain't a cloud in the sky and it's raining out - Eminem ~! Firewall !~

I take it your teacher has absolutely NO experience in the real world. The answer to this is that it depends entirely on your contract with the client. If your contract states you hand over code, then you hand over code - in fact, if you're a contractor then, chances are, that's what you're handing over.

Oh, so as, I mean these freelancer dudes, when they work for a project. They hand over the actual source code to the employer itself.

Yes, but as said, depends on the contract, also whenever you're working for a company as an employee (not contractor) whatever you create is property of the company. Things are more complicated than what your teacher is telling you, my recommendation to you, "read the contract before you sign it"

I agree with Gonzoox, the first thing is to read the contract you've signed with the company that hired you...
