Programming means giving computer an instruction to carry out.

Those poeple that gives the computer that instruction are the "programmers" example ogisosoft that is my company name,we develop computer instructions(programs) while you are "non programmer" because as you are now you cannot ask computer to find the Area of a given triangle.


thanks

Fancy asking what's the difference between a nigerian and a non-nigerian!!!

@doyen
This isnt ignorance. Try explaining yourself, except of course you just started this thread so it'll be on record that you once did! And guess what?! I just realised i havent started any!

Here is a reference to your question. Who is a programmer. Non-programmer is the opposite of programmer.

My God, Levels of incompetence set new heights on a daily basis.

Or do you mean like web developers (HTML etc) and programmers (Java, C etc). I mean I accept english is not our first language but come on.
Whats the difference between a smoker and a non-smoker? One smokes one does not. Same applies to programmers and non-programmers, or a banker and a non-banker (in reality there is no such thing as a non-programmer or non-banker because its a skill, painter/non-painter, plumber/non-plumber wrong wrong wrong)

There is no such thing as non-programmer

Gleyo I agree with you but lets pardon him for now because in Igbo language there is a saying that says "A lost man can never get more lost by asking question" Remember you are here because I am ubuntu.

doyen,

sbucareer answered your question. Tell me if I am wrong but I reckon you want to know the difference between a computer programmer and a person that doesn't know how to program with a computer using a computer language?

Computer Programmers - Computer programmers write, test, and maintain the detailed instructions, called programs, that computers must follow to perform their functions. Programmers also conceive, design, and test logical structures for solving problems by computer.

Non Computer Programmers - People that can't do what computer programmer do

Hope that helps.

This guy is so funny, 2 years to reply a post probably the guy is a grandpa with a snail shaped hand so it will take more than 6 months to type 10 characters like S(takes 2weeks) L(4 months) O(1 month) W(1 week).
