There is no option to retrieve the code. You will need to erase it and restore it using one of the methods below.

See instructions in: How to remove your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch passcode without a computer - Apple Support


If that option is not available, you will need to use a computer. See: If you forgot your iPad passcode - Apple Support including the following:

This process requires a Mac or PC. If you're using a PC, make sure that it has Windows 8 or later, and that iTunes is installed. You also need the cable that came with your iPad, or another compatible cable, to connect your iPad to the computer.


If you don't have a computer and you can't borrow one, you need to go to an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.
