What do computer programmers do?

• Writing and testing code for new programs. Computer programmers
work closely with web and software developers to write code for new
mobile applications or computer programs.
• Updating existing programs. Programmers also create and install
updates for existing software programs. An update might include a
bug fix, or enhanced functionality to improve the user experience.
• Identifying and correcting coding errors. On a daily basis, computer
programmers might assist in troubleshooting parts of a website or
computer program that are not functioning correctly.
• Rewriting programs for different operating systems. Often,
programmers have to rewrite code in different languages, so that
programs and applications can be compatible with different operating
systems.
 4
• Secure programs against cybersecurity threats. Many computer
programmers work in the cybersecurity field, helping to identify
malicious software and fix software that could be vulnerable to
potential hacks.
