It looks like you're accessing the files directly. Don't do this. You
need to run them through Apache: So you need to visit
http://localhost/wordpress/ rather than the files, otherwise the PHP is
not processed.

It looks like you might not have set up a host for your Wordpress stuff
yet, and you don't have it under what is recognizable as an htdocs dir
to me: you will need to move /wordpress/ to somewhere that is web
accessible.

What you are seeing is an HTML rendering of a PHP script: If you look at
the source, you will see the exact same source as you would of the PHP
script.
