2. Computer Programmer
Computers can do amazing things, from basic laptops capable of simple word processing and
spreadsheet functions to incredibly complex supercomputers completing millions of financial
transactions a day and controlling the infrastructure that makes modern life possible. But no computer
can do anything until a computer programmer tells it to behave in specific ways. That’s what computer
programming is all about.
At its most basic, computer programming is little more than a set of instructions to facilitate specific
actions. Based on the requirements or purposes of these instructions, computer programming can be as
simple as adding two numbers. It can also be as complex as reading data from temperature sensors to
adjust a thermostat, sorting data to complete intricate scheduling or critical reports or taking players
through multi-layered worlds and challenges in games.
Also known as software engineers or systems programmers, computer programmers are tasked with
designing and creating software programs, integrating systems and software, training end-users,
analyzing algorithms, modifying source-code, writing system instructions, debugging, and maintaining
operating systems.
