From: Doug Palme How does one define "affordable"? I know that within our area, one company thinks that programmers should be found in the 35k range while another company is willing to spend 2 to 3 times that amount.
Coders are in the 35K range. Programmers double that, programmer/analysts triple (roughly speaking). Business experience, relevant languages and verbal and written skills all play an increasing part in the upper echelons. The difference between a coder and a programmer is the amount of business knowledge they can impart to the process. If you need to specify basically every calculation and every user interaction, or if you have to supply all business logic via APIs or stored procedures, then that person is a coder. If, on the other hand, the individual can determine the business logic from business-level requirements then you have yourself a programmer. If, Nirvana, they can derive the requirements from the user, you have an honest-to-goodness programmer/analyst. Buy them expensive automobiles and/or get compromising photographs. :) Joe
