What is the possibility of being denied entry at the US border if I have a valid B1/B2 visa and I plan on attending a coding school?

Since you received a visa specifically for this trip, it is likely that you will be admitted at the border without trouble, although of course there are no guarantees. Denying entry at the border is much more work for them than simply denying a visa; as a result, border officers tend to accept the visa officer's judgment unless something has changed since you got the visa. The corollary is that one way to reduce uncertainty at the border is by applying for a visa for your trip, which is exactly what you've done.
(A couple other thoughts I had about your question: (1) why did you decide to obtain a visa instead of traveling on VWP/ESTA? Is the trip over 90 days? (2) if they were concerned about your finances overall, I don't know whether taking out a large loan would help, although I suppose it might; (3) I agree with you that the bootcamp is unwelcome by officials due to not fitting neatly into student, business or tourist visas; B1/B2 isn't for full time studies; I wonder why the bootcamp can't get officially recognized, and I wonder what the bootcamp recommends as far as visas. But these thoughts aren't particularly important now that you've successfully received the visa.)
