Do the lines of code affect the program size?

Hello,

Question in the Title (Same Code just with different amount of Lines).
was just wondering if it does.

Example1 :
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i       z1, 
   z2,      z3,      z4,      z5,      z6,      z7,      z8,      z9, 
    z10: Integer; 
Example2:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i       z1,
z2, z3, z4, z5, z6, z7, z8, z9, z10: Integer; 
i do preffer the first Example because of readability, so i asked
myself if i do get any disadvantage out of it.

If you develop on Windows, the only disadvantage - if you consider it
so - is that the more readable example gives you a marginally larger
source code file.

For projects with tens of thousands of LOC you will notice a slight
source code size penalty when preferring readability, since you will
add consistent indenting, blank lines to separate sections of code
that are logically separate, and so on.

Although it might affect the amount of debugging information appended.
