“A software developer and a programmer are the same thing. Attempts to distinguish the two are pointless. The term “software engineer” is a euphemism that helps us justify our pay. The term “computer scientist” should apply to any programmer or developer who regularly enlists the scientific method.”

thank you guys for the answers, actually I find specific definitions define each in terms of the treatment of the coding tasks. But I was also wondering what YOU guys prefer or considering your self ..
for me, I always prefer to define my self as a developer because, as @ramesh S mentioned , I think it belongs to creativity. what is your opinion? or it doesn't matter at all?
