If a programmer is "person who creates computer programs" then Ada Lovelace was not one as she only wrote part of a program. Suggest: A programmer is one who authors code.
Second paragraph was added but not integrated with the first. Duplication.
Third paragraph opens a floodgate of which languages to include ... people has adding more over time. Just link to computer language.
Programming is a skill. Software developer and software engineer are titles ... or roles or something ... not really skills. I guess programmer could be a title too, but generally not. Consider the CEO saying: we need to hire a lawyer. The person hired would be a lawyer, but their title would not be "lawyer".
