when I was in high school and in college
what computer programmer meant or did wasn't even found out yet
the closest thing they could compare it is was a video game beta tester but for programs
that still holds up
but it's not how I see it
computer programmer to break it down
computer can be anything can be a phone can be Christmas lights an xbox or a pc
programmer is to program something
if it's installing an operating system if it's building a machine(hardware) if it's designing software designing a website, writing code to make an exe work
as small as setting a screensaver or a background
or designing a computer to turn on at a daytime open a program do a task turn off at a daytime
all that falls in the programming category
taking an xbox case off of an xbox
painting the case
then putting the case back on no modifications to hardware or software
would also be computer programming
that's why I felt it was such a good thing to go to college for
where at that time it is was either computer programming or computer science
computer science was looked at as a novelty class
where you could go to learn what's already happened for no reason other than to see how what we use today was made
would never get a job since it was all already done but you could learn
where programming and programmers would get new jobs every single day
