  • Quick tip for everyone who wishes to be a coder with a good programming base. Not necessarily a (discrete) math expert, but a solid developer. Invest in learning C. It's syntax, data types, memory handling, usage of pointers and so on. Once you're at a good level in C, most common languages will seem easier to grasp, and you'll have a better understanding about what's happening "under the hood" with more high-level syntax. IMO, if you start at Python or Javascript, for example, without a theoretical background, coding might seem a bit like it's just about knowing the right calls (as if you're spell casting) or the right APIs and Frameworks. These are all useful for sure, but they're tools, not the craft itself.

    • I tend to agree, because that's how I started. Even though C is not an object oriented language, I developed an object oriented mind set. That is due to the the fact that my first project required that I think in those terms. Moving to C++ was a bit of a chore, but it is still my preferred language. Those languages allowed me to start be productive in C# from day one on a new job. I was with the company for 2 years before my manager and teammates learnt that I had not written one line of C# before they hire me (I was hired based on C++ knowledge). Some of the more advanced concepts that a C/C++ programmer takes for granted are almost impossible to accomplish in some of the higher level languages like C#. The advantage of higher level languages is that they just work until they don't, at which point understanding what is happening under the hood becomes a very important factor.

As time went by I learned more and kept improving the code, based on my research (no internet at the time) and new ideas I had along the way. You can start with something simple like "Hello Wold", but in today's world that's a cut and paste project in just about every programming language out there. I would recommend a more ambitious goal and start at the beginning. Write down what you want to create (your goal), then write down what you need to make that happen (intermediate goals). Don't try to do it all at once or you'll get frustrated and give up. If it is Windows program, then first learn to create an application Window. Modern development environments well normally do that for you. Then you'll probably want buttons, and etc. During each step you'll learn something new. What I am describing here is the top down approach; designing the interface first and then the pieces that make it work. As long as you keep each piece as simple as possible, you should have no problems eventually reaching your goal.

  • Programming is the action of telling a computer to do something; "You program a computer" and that means you somehow tell a computer to perform a specific task. How you achieve that is not defined by that term. Writing code is one way to do it, feeding specific non-code data to it is another one. One day you may just tell it with your voice what to do and even that would be considered programming. Even feeding data to an AI and correcting its errors would be considered programming and it doesn't involve any code at all. Programming is not abstract, though, unless you perform it only theoretically and thus never need to teach a real computer to perform an action. To really program something, you need to know in practice how to make a computer do it. If you only know how it is done but not how to tell it to a computer, you cannot program that computer. Coding is the action of writing code. You write code to make a computer do something but as I already mentioned above, this is not the only way you can tell a computer to do something. If programming is cooking, coding is baking. Not everything can be baked and not all cooking is baking. Coding is basically the most common way today to program a computer, yet you can also write code with a pen on a piece of paper. So coding can be as abstract and theoretical as programming. As for the person, a programmer is a person hired to program computers. A coder is who writes code. Yet nobody hires coders as a coder is useless. The only reason why you would want someone to write code for money is to program a computer and then he's a programmer. So a programmer is also a job description, a coder is not. People saying they are coders are people that like to code and they may do it for a living but then they are for sure programmers.

  • Way back in the mid-1980's (yes, I'm old!) I worked for a small company doing assembly language programming for embedded systems that were based on the 8-bit Intel 8085A microprocessor. We always referred to each other as "Programmers", but during technical discussions we talked about our "code" and how we can improve its efficiency and maintainability. As a home "hobbyist" your code can be total garbage as long as it does what you want it to do. But in industry, especially when programming for a medical manufacturer or the military, your code MUST be efficient for the platform it will run on, and your code MUST be maintainable by other engineers who later may be tasked to debug or modify your software long after you are gone!

But not to say computer science cannot be learned outside of college, it's just silly to say there's a difference between "programming" and "coding". There's designing software and code monkeys but I'm not sure where the new hierarchical jargon came from since it has never been this way before. Reminds me a lot of "clean code"/Ruby on Rails which takes standard computer science concepts, renames, and repackages them to people who went to boot camp looking for gurus.

  • This was very enlightening, I can somewhat appreciate the distinction. Though I would disagree that coders should be held lower than programmers. I don't know if you do read these comments, but can you tell me any concrete steps in how do you grow as a programmer? I am always at a loss as to what to do. If I learn language and syntax, I am forced see a requirement in learning logic. If I learn logic I am again forced to learn languages. Most of the times different projects have different requirements in languages and syntax. Due to which logic is forced to take a backseat. Improving logic is also time taking, difficult and hard to measure. If I solve DS problems, math problems and other logic problems it is always hard to quantify what I have learned and how I have to apply it in my present work. It always feels like an exercise in futility. Because most of what I have learned is of no use temporarily and I would like to save brain power to focus on the problems in front of me before other things.

But a writer is skilled in the nuances of written language, all of the technical terms and styles, and is able to write something deep and complex in a way anyone can understand upon reading it. One is a skill, the other is an art. But both use the same words and tools.

I feel that the label of a programmer or a coder is perceived similarly like a monkey that wrenches until something works. Engineers are seen as those who design systems for the longevity of software that will be used for years to come, the ability to implement that necessary code is just expected once the solution is well thought through after tons of planning.

  • I worked as a Jr. level programmer back in my 20s (all pre-Windows stuff) working primarily in UI and creating coding tools. Back then, there was a much blurrier line between programming and coding. Now days, I would classify myself in a third category as a "scripter". What is the difference? Well, now I am more of an IT generalist. I do, at times need to automate many of the things that I do. For these, I work in scripting languages. I can do some fairly complex and complicated scripts. But would never call myself a programmer or a coder. I just don't do what they do. I'll put together a dynamic website if I need to. I'll completely automate PC and software deployments, complete with network identification and domain registration. I'll automate file and database analysis. I even have scripts that generate and print various barcodes from scratch, without relying on libraries or fonts. But it still isn't the same as what a programmer or a coder does. Writing a script, developing a program, and writing code are definitely three very different things. I can't say one is inherently better (by better, I mean requiring greater knowledge or skill) than another. There are lower and higher levels in each area. I know programmers that couldn't code properly to save their lives. I also know coders that couldn't possibly put a program together. But, contrary to the general public and business views; programming, coding, and scripting are most certainly not the same.

You don't even need a computer to program, you can do it in your head, use stuff like UML, or whatever, but to codify into something usable by compiler you certainly do need a computer. Codification is just part of the development cycle.

  • Something to consider. A developer is a creative mindset behind the need to innovate. When someone invents a programming language, it has built-in commands to run it. For instance the korn-shell is a command-execution program. In unix or windows, ls and dir exist, each is a command and the shell interprets the command and executes it. Here's the next question, is scripting a programming language? The short answer is no. a script is comprised of commands that are written in a format that is understood and executed by the interpreter, be it power-shell, python, perl etc. etc. Coding is the verb for creating scripts and or programs. A programmer can code a set of instructions, then compile them into a program. Just because I understand scripting and one or more programming languages, it does not make me a developer. Why does a writer need a proof-reader? Because the writer is the creative side, the proof-reader is the grammar expert. There are some people who can not create new code, but they can understand and troubleshoot it or make it more efficient. So that's how it see it. -G

    • @@MADHEWPRAGUE I find Fin's answer here to be good, because you can add the nuance yourself by thinking it through. Builders and architects are colleagues. Architects come to builders for advice on details, and they have important dialogues on things such as which materials to use for a given surface or feature. You can have a building project, such as a private home, where you (the customer) do your own drawings and where they are revised with the help of an architect or perhaps just a highly experienced builder. Many good architects have builder backgrounds, but rarely the other way around. The degree to which you need to involve an architect differs highly from project to project, and the degree to which a builder needs to be able to do architectural thinking differs. And of course you have DIY which compares to open source.

We could also admit that we use practices because we just are familiar with them and they served sufficiently in the past. Thats totally ok. But "best Practice" is no sufficient reason for doing anything in development. Development is an art if we really give it a chance. Thinking out of the box doesnt happen otherwise. And i dont talk about complex algorithms or code to show off, i talk about the way doing things simple and concise without following xyz paradigms and idioms.

If we're going to be that loose with the word we might as well say all those people back in the 1980's who "programmed" their VCR to record at 3:00pm are programmers too. In that case, let's call everyone who's changed the clock in their car a programmer so we have to invent a new word to describe what we do. While we're at it, let's call the application of a Band-Aid "practicing medicine," and one who does so a "medical doctor." Programming = writing code Coding = writing code The terms are therefore synonymous. Writing down or inventing an algorithm is "writing down or inventing an algorithm," aka "design." It's not "programming" in any sense of the word.

What we need is to inspire people to learn, but that can only be done if they are shown the full potential, not just taught everything randomly all the way through elementary-, middle-, and high school. My biggest bone to pick with the education system has always been this and it is annoying frankly because they don't seem to realise how important it is to show people and make them understand WHY they are learning. The why gives a strong driving force and motivation.
