PROGRAMMER

A computer programmer, sometimes


called more recently a coder (especially
in more informal contexts), is a person
who creates computer software. The
term computer programmer can refer to a
specialist in one area of computers, or to
a generalist who writes code for many
kinds of software.
A programmer's most oft-used computer
language (e.g., Assembly, COBOL, C, C++,
C#, Java, Lisp, Python) may be prefixed to
the term programmer. Some who work
with web programming languages also
prefix their titles with web.
A range of occupations that involve
programming also often require a range
of other, similar skills, for example:
(software) developer, web
developer, mobile applications
developer,
embedded firmware developer, software
engineer, computer scientist, game
programmer, game
developer and software analyst. The use
of the term programmer as applied to
these positions is sometimes
considered an insulting simplification or
even derogatory
