    The aim of this paper is to give an equivalent formulation of the factorization conjecture for codes. Recall that this conjecture states that every finite and maximal code can be factorized. The main result of this paper is to give a characterization of factorizing codes in terms of petal automata, based on a result by \textit{A. Restivo} on bayonet codes [Discrete Math. 17, 309-316 (1977; Zbl 0357.94011)].
