The following Outline (list) | outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to computer programming:

Computer programming; process that leads from an original formulation of a computing problem to executable computer programs. Programming involves activities such as analysis, developing understanding, generating algorithms, software verification | verification of requirements of algorithms including their correctness (computer science) | correctness and resources consumption, and implementation (commonly referred to as coding<ref>

</ref><ref>

</ref>) of algorithms in a target programming language. Source code is written in one or more programming languages. The purpose of programming is to find a sequence of instructions that will automate performing a specific task or solving a given problem.
