Quite a lot of difference. Alchemy is science and software development is art

  From my dictionary: Alchemy: the medieval forerunner of chemistry, concerned with the transmutation of matter, in particular with attempts to convert base metals into gold or find a universal elixir.

    Cool, so alchemy was like medieval chemistry! But I guess the motive was to make a quick buck by making gold! :)
