Programming Paradigms 1.3
In the next section we deal with two of the widely used paradigms namely, Structured
Programming and Objective-oriented Programming Paradigm.
1.3.1 Structured Programming Paradigm
Procedure-oriented programming such as C uses procedure calls. The main task is divided
into subtasks with inputs and functions to achieve the desired result. The data is forwarded
to procedures through arguments. In this paradigm, the procedure is important and the data
is shared by procedures.
Algorithm or program or procedure is a sequence of steps to be followed, which when
followed leads to a desired output. A group of procedures can be termed as a program. A pro-
cedure is also known as a routine, subroutine, function or method. A program ...
