| | Procedural programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Procedural programming is a programming paradigm based upon the concept of the procedure call. | | | Procedures, also known as routines, subroutines, methods, or functions (not to be confused with mathematical functions, but similar to those used in functional programming) simply contain a series of computational steps to be carried out. | | | Most or all extant procedural programming languages are also imperative languages, because they make explicit references to the state of the execution environment. |

| | Logic programming language, on the other hand, is designed to be used for the development of artificial intelligent machines and natural language understanding. | | | Also the use of predicate calculus to express specifications for problem solving is one of the greatest contribution of logic programming language to computer science and to artificial intelligence. | | | Prolog for example is one of the programming languages in the logic family. |

| | AI Newsletter |
| | Procedural Languages and AI In this newsletter we've looked at symbolic languages like Mozart, SML, Lisp and Prolog for developing AI applications. | | | The answer is libraries written in the procedural language that encapsulate the tools used for AI, so they can be called from that language without the developer having to get into the details of the implementation of knowledge modeling or reasoning. | | | If AI is the art and science of making computers do interesting things not in their nature, then these languages are good for AI because they all, to one degree or another, hide programming tasks related to a computer's nature such as data typing, memory managment and defining procedural code execution. |

| | HPDRC: A Universal Model for Non-procedural Database Languages |
| | A query language is implementable iff its semantics is a partial computable function. | | | The language is syntactically based on the first-order predicate calculus, but semantically is interpreted as post-conditions, unlike the customary calculus query languages. | | | In the first variant of the language, I have chosen to represent the scalar functions by recursive expressions because their procedural semantics is well-known and because they are quite user-friendly, and in order to clearly distinguish between the logical manipulation of the database structure in predicate calculus and arithmetics on scalars. |

| | Programming a functional future |
| | More precisely, computing languages choose to abandon most of the power of mathematics by using symbols in a way that conflicts with their use in mathematics. | | | Functional languages generally admit a rigorous specification that makes it feasible to prove in a useful sense the correctness or incorrectness of a computing program. | | | Most of the conventional computing languages that you know are procedural: they naturally express the how of sequences of actions, and the job of the programmer is to compose sequences that will lead to happy results. |

| | Bad Engineering Properties of Object-Oriented Language |
| | In the last decade, object-oriented languages have been widely adopted as engineering tools because of their superiority with respect to software extensibility, which is a critical engineering property [4]. | | | In fairness, designers of object-oriented languages did not simply "forget" to include properties such as good type systems and good modularity: the issues are intrinsically more complex than in procedural languages. | | | However, object-oriented languages have not incorporated all the engineering insights that have been successfully deployed in procedural languages. |

| | ALU: Object Orientation |
| | A purely procedural language would have no functions, but might have "subroutines" of no arguments that returned no values, and performed certain assignments and other operations based on the data it found stored in the system. | | | Procedural languages essentially perform everything as side-effects to data structures. | | | Purely functional languages do not have assignment, as all side-effecting can be defined in terms of functions that encapsulate the changed data. |

| | Relational Algebra |
| | Non procedural languages are much easier to use it than procedural languages. | | | The users of these languages do not need to tell the system how to find the results, all they have to do is to ask for the end result they want. | | | For example SQL is a nonprocedural language and assume that we have a table (file) of employee and we want to find the names and phones of all female employees who make less than $30,000 per a year. |

| | Object-Based Languages are the language that do implement data abstractions, and to varying degrees, do implement inheritance to permit object-oriented programming. | | | Unlike other languages, Logic progrmming languages are not general-purpose progrmming languages, but instead are oriented toward solving problems using the predicate calculus. | | | From Functional Languages' design, they are meant to be programmed applicatively. |

| | Functional vs. Procedural Programming Language |
| | It is the most natural way to tell a computer what to do, and the computer processor's own language, machine code, is procedural, so the translation of the procedural high-level language into machine code is straightforward and efficient. | | | A procedural program is written as a list of instructions, telling the computer, step-by-step, what to do: Open a file, read a number, multiply by 4, display something. | | | Mathematica is, in essence, a functional programming language that is implemented as a term rewriting system with very extensive pattern-matching capabilities; one can program in Mathematica using the procedural style of programming (e.g., using Do loops) but it is definitely preferable to adopt the functional or rule-based style. |

| | Procedural Dylan |
| | This essay explores Dylan from the perspective of a programmer used to traditional procedural languages, such as Pascal or C, who may want to use the facilities offered by Dylan development environments without changing programming style or thinking in a different way. | | | Also, some features of Dylan which mesh well with the procedural programming style but have no direct analogs in Pascal or C may make an appropriate addition to one's bag of tricks. | | | For more complete information, see the Dylan reference manual. |
