Hello @Steemit Fellows! This is my first post in #SteemInfinityZone . Hope you all are doing well.

Coding and programming: Are they synonym ?
Of course not! Both seems to be synonym, but they are altogether different from each other.

This article is based on clearly explaining the differences between Coding and Programming. I will try to provide you with all the information for making a distinction between the two phenomena.

 

DEFINITION

credit

CODING:

Coding is a subset of programming that deals with converting the language into binary commands i.e machine readable code.

PROGRAMMING:

Programming is the process of building a fully functioning software.

 

SCOPE

credit

CODING:

Coding involves translating the requirement logic into machine understandable code.

PROGRAMMING:

Programming involves understanding data structures, identifying the problem, generating algorithm, analyzing the algorithm accuracy, problem solving, debugging, compiling and much more.

 

TOOLS

credit

CODING:

Simple text editor like Notepad, Notepad++, Wordpad, Textwrangler would be suffice for coding and also IDE tools such as ATOM, Delphi are also used for coding nowadays.

PROGRAMMING:

Programming entails document examination and analysis along with coding, which necessitates the use of additional tools. The tools needed for programming are code generators, databases, data structure, testing frameworks, compilers, code editors, GUI designers, debuggers, code analysis tools etc.

 

SKILLS

credit

CODING:

Coders are needed to understand the fundamental of programming languages including syntax, data types and keywords. Basic knowledge of programming languages such as C, Java, C# is necessary for coders.

PROGRAMMING:

Programmers should have practical experience with skills such as analytical skills, writing complex programs, data structures, designing algorithms and project management

 

OUTCOME

credit

CODING:

While coding, the expected outcome is simple solution or a little portion of a larger project.

PROGRAMMING:

Whereas while programming, the expected outcome is fully functional applications, software products, web pages and websites.

I hope by now you totally agree that coding and programming are different after comparison with a number of factors.
Hope you liked this article and now you have an idea that coding and programming are not same. THANKS for reading :)
