Programming is not the same thing as software development. Software development requires programming, among many other things. Programming need not be towards the acct of software development. More specifically, I wouldn't call solving Project Euler problems "software development". It's a game, a puzzle, that requires programming. And I wouldn't call requirements analysis, UI design, testing, etc., "programming", But they are fundamental aspects of software development. It's possible to treat programming as a calling and software development an occupation.
