Is coding and hacking the same thing?

Coding is writing code to be used in a variety of ways. Hacking is using that code for malicious purposes.

The original hackers used electric musical keyboards and plastic whistles to hijack phone lines.

if you made the code, and it did something, but it was outside the operational boundaries and it's design. that's a hack. if you input and the output was expected it's coding. saying you coded a virus is not true because you the functional uses of a virus means it hacked the mode of operational design. So if you got a virus your definitely hacked and when you don't remove it you are allowing it to hack, and you yourself are the host.

False. Hackers love experimenting and learning how things work and finding ways to make them do things they weren't originally intended to do. They are not criminals.

But you can still hack for the purpose of causing damage.

No.

Coding is writing in a computer language for a piece of software that your hardware runs.

Hacking, or being a hack, is a slang term for having a loose but raw talent for anything. Originally it referred to novel authors; "hack writer"--writers who had a talent, but didn't have a full education on the classics and other material.

In some ways the answer is yes- especially if one is coding openly.

The entire definition of hacking is commonly misunderstood by the common masses.

Think of the original 2 Steves from Apple. They started off learning how (when people had to pay for calls) phones worked and learned to make free calls.

They then went into the garage, took some parts and made the first true PC.

These kinds of things are hacking. It really means learning how things work, modifying, putting things together.... A bunch of that other stuff is pure Hollywood.

By this standard, anybody who breaks out a hammer, a screwdriver, a paint brush...who does anything creative, invents anything.... to some degree is hacking.

So if someone follows someone else's instructions and creates code that makes a task occur it kinda is hacking. If they did something independently, and created something new and different then that very much would qualify.

not exactly, you can steal wifi with tsurugi OS without any computer knowledge.

Hackers generally are either white hats or black hats. White hat hackers will identify flaws in security systems and not share this information with anyone except the owner, and recommend they improve their security to help keep them safe. Black hats will identify flaws in security systems in order to exploit those flaws for financial gain, and may even share vulnerabilities with others to cause chaos or just to be ♥♥♥♥♥.

nope

hacker always meant bad

then we got "white knight "hackers"

they did legit hacking, but turned over the evidence to help

then some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ decided that

"hacking"

meant using anything in any other clever way

that is how we get crap like

"hack your kitchen"

and the like

You don't even need to be a coder to be a hacker.

Software are Programs. The people making them are called Programmers, they are trained in Programming. Software programmed for malicious use is called malware and it comes in different versions as: phishing, hijack, virii & root kits. All with the various degrees of damage and/or theft.
