Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Greek 'programma' meaning 'public notice' (via Late Latin and French 'programme'), entering English in the 17th century with the sense of a written public notice or outline. Over time, the meaning broadened to include theatrical schedules, broadcast lineups, and eventually sets of coded instructions for computers in the mid-20th century.
