Semi-related, pedantic remark on the title: in British English we commonly use the word "programme" in place of "program" for e.g. TV programmes and concert programmes. However, even in British English the correct form for a computer program is "program".
I have a copy of A Guide to Programming the National - Elliott 803 Electronic Digital Computer, and it spells it "programme" throughout, but that was written back in 1962. However, I haven't seen it spelt that way in the last 40 years or so.
Pedantic remark on your pedantic remark – in the title it's used (still incorrectly) as a verb, not as a noun, so it would be the correct form for a programming computer is "to program".

Thanks :) I'll get that changed on the site.
