Do you mean how to structure code files in a folder structure (and classes in namespaces) or do you mean how to format the code within each file?

The main thing to bear in mind when writing code is: do the thing that makes it easiest for a human to read.

No.
There are lots of standards. Probably nearly as many as there are people writing code! :laugh:

There are too many variables here to give you a meaningful answer: a lot depends on the language you will use, the company you work for, the technologies and patterns you will code for. And the end market can also dictate the code structure: the military market tends to want this, a medical application will want that.

So the only meaningful answer is "No" - despite there being a heck of a lot of them!

Nope.
However there are wise guidelines. The most important is: "Structure your code in a way the compiler would accept it..."
