Definition: To enter a program or other instructions into (a computer or other electronic device) to instruct it to do a particular task.

Alright class, settle down and let’s take a peek, At what “programming” truly means, if you seek! The dictionary's right, it lays it out with care, "To enter instructions – that’s the key we share!" Think of it like this: you want your toy to dance, You can’t just wish it - give it a clever chance. You tell it how to move, step by careful step, Giving it commands, secrets you keep! Programming is much the same, you see, We're giving instructions to a machine, so free! A computer’s waiting, bright and keen, For us to show it what we want it to be seen. So, “To instruct” means telling it just what to do, Like adding, subtracting, or displaying something new! It's about building steps, a logical flow, To make the computer brilliantly grow! Does that make sense? Any questions you might pose?
