Read the excerpt from Hammurabi’s Code.

“If a man has knocked out the eye of a patrician [aristocrat], his eye shall be knocked out. . . If he has knocked out the eye of a plebeian [commoner] . . . he shall pay one mina of silver. If he has knocked out the eye of a patrician’s servant . . . he shall pay half his value.”

Based on this quote what can we conclude about Hammurabi's Code?
