People who are lifelong coders who know their terms inside and out without explanation. DayOfTheProgrammer
In the 21st century, “learn to code” has become a mantra of sorts for a certain kind of person. And yes, for many people, coding is a great first or even second career choice after attending universities, coding bootcamps, or one of the best online coding courses. But the related terms you see online are confusing. What is coding compared with programming or even terms like software engineering?
To put it simply, if you were a writer, coding would be the mechanics of spelling words, choosing the right vocabulary, and making readable sentences. Programming, and the related field of software engineering, is how you make sure your sentences work together, the final essay makes sense, you’ve turned it in on time, and the person who assigned it will be happy with the outcome.
What is the difference between coding and programming?The terms coding and programming are often used interchangeably by people who don’t know any better, because sometimes their tasks can look and seem similar. But the differences are stark and easy to summarize. Coding refers to the task of writing code, or specifically defined technical language, in order for the code to be understood by the computer or system.
Code is usually written in short sections that go line by line, so the results usually look more like poetry at a glance than like written paragraphs. Part of that is to make it easier to look up specific lines when there are problems with the code. Each line tells the computer something to do, like to save a variable or to display text. Coders also don’t always have to work on programs at all.
Which is easier to learn: coding, or programming?Coding and programming may be different, but coding is where both groups get their start. That means learning to code usually must come first. Some coders are self taught, meaning they learn over time by working on their own, looking things up, checking out examples of working code as inspiration, and more.
