person who writes computer programs
A person who writes code to make computer programs work.
用法パターン：
[someone] works as a programmer
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "programmer" with "program" and say things like *"I am a program"* instead of *"I am a programmer"*. Another common mistake is using "coder" in very formal writing where "programmer" or "software engineer" sounds more appropriate.
類義語
developer (Very close in meaning; slightly broader, can include designing software as well as writing code.)
|
software engineer (More formal and professional-sounding; often suggests deeper training and work on large systems.)
|
coder (More informal; focuses on the act of writing code rather than the full development process.)
対義語
user (A user operates software, while a programmer creates or changes the software.)

person who plans shows or events
A person who chooses and plans what movies, shows, or events people will see or hear.
用法パターン：
[someone] works as a programmer for [a channel / a festival]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes think this meaning is about writing computer code because they only know the technology sense. Context words like "festival", "film", "TV", or "radio" usually signal this media meaning.
類義語
curator (Similar in arts and film contexts, but "curator" is slightly more formal and often linked to museums and galleries.)
|
scheduler (Focuses more on the timing and order rather than on artistic or content choices.)
対義語
performer (A performer appears in the show or event, while a programmer works behind the scenes deciding what is presented.)
