    "Coding is the process of translating and writing codes from one language to another whereas Programming is the process of building an executable program that can be used to carry out proper machine level outputs. Coding only deals with the codes and so it is less intimidating and less intensive."

    Still not really clear to me either. I Just think of Reprogramming as the refilling of an empty water tower and coding as the assigning which spigots that the water will be allowed to flow to before anyone gets water to flush their turds down the pipe.
