Computer programmers write, test, and maintain computer programs. They convert project specifications into detailed flow charts and code programs in computer languages. Programmers develop programs to store, locate, and retrieve documents and data. Some programmers create websites. The work involves logical problem solving and using mathematics and computer knowledge. Programmers typically work alone or in teams in an office environment, with long hours and tight deadlines. Hourly wages for computer programmers range from $23.97 to $41.41, with an average of $32.96 per hour or $68,549 annually. Programmers should be trained in languages like C++, Java, Visual Basic, Perl, and others.

- 2. COMPUTER PROGRAMMERS write, test, and maintain programs or software that tell the computer what to do. They convert project specifications and statements of problems and procedures to detailed logical flow charts for coding into computer language. They develop and write computer programs to store, locate, and retrieve specific documents, data, and information. They may program Web sites.
- 3. Programming - up with logical answers. It involves deciding if an answer makes sense. Computers and Electronics - Knowledge of electric circuit boards, processors, chips, and computer hardware and software, including applications and programming. Mathematics - Knowledge of numbers, their operations, and interrelationships including arithmetic, algebra, geometry, calculus, statistics, and their applications.
- 4. Computer Programmers generally work in an office environment. Programmers are known to work long hours with intense workloads against tight deadlines. The "debugging" phase of programming can be the most stressful. Most Programmers work alone but some are expected to work in teams and interact directly with users. A growing trend in the field of computer programming is the virtual office, also known as telecommuting.
