A semiconductor memory has a memory cell matrix including a plurality of first and second cell columns alternately arranged along a row-direction, each of cell columns is implemented by a plurality of memory cell transistors, and peripheral circuits configured to drive the memory cell matrix and to read information from the memory cell matrix. The peripheral circuit encompasses (a) a leading program circuit configured to write first data into memory cell transistors in the first cell columns, (b) a lagging program circuit configured to write second data into memory cell transistors in the second cell columns after the first data are written, and (c) a voltage controller configured to control variation of threshold voltages for the memory cell transistors of the first cell columns.
