| | 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. | | | Procedural programming is often a better choice than simple sequential or unstructured programming in many situations which involve moderate complexity or which require significant ease of maintainability. |

| | Programming language - Wikipédia |
| | The development of programming languages, unsurprisingly, follows closely the development of the physical and electronic processes used in today's computers. | | | Type-inferred languages superficially treat all data as not having a type, but actually do sophisticated analysis of the way the program uses the data to determine which elementary operations are performed on the data, and therefore deduce what type the variables have at compile-time. | | | The rigorous definition of the meaning of programming languages is the subject of Formal semantics. |

| | Structured programming - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch |
| | Structured programming can be seen as a subset or subdiscipline of procedural programming, one of the major programming paradigms. | | | It is possible to do structured programming in almost any procedural programming language, but since about 1970 when structured programming began to gain popularity as a technique, most new procedural programming languages have included features to encourage structured programming, (and sometimes have left out features that would make unstructured programming easy). | | | Structured programming is often (but not always) associated with a "top-down" approach to design. |

| | All computers operate by following machine language programs, a long sequence of instructions called machine code that is addressed to the hardware of the computer and is written in binary notation (see numeration), which uses only the digits 1 and 0. | | | PILOT [Programmed Instruction Learning, Or Testing] is used in writing instructional software, and Occam is a nonsequential language that optimizes the execution of a program’s instructions in parallel-processing systems. | | | Fifth-generation languages, which are still in their infancy, are an outgrowth of artificial intelligence research. |

| | What is programming language? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary |
| | The choice of which language to use depends on the type of computer the program is to run on, what sort of program it is, and the expertise of the programmer. | | | High-level programming languages, while simple compared to human languages, are more complex than the languages the computer actually understands, called machine languages. | | | Lying between machine languages and high-level languages are languages called assembly languages. |

| | Functional vs. Procedural Programming Language |
| | 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. | | | 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. | | | 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. |

| | Today's programming languages have received a considerable degree of complexity, raising the question whether all the concepts provided are really necessary to solve typical programming problems. | | | As an alternative to object-oriented and aspect-oriented languages, advanced procedural programming languages are suggested, which slightly extend the two basic concepts of classical procedural languages, i. | | | By that means, it is possible to design programming languages which are much simpler to learn and use, while offering comparable expressiveness and flexibility. |

| | Prolog as a Procedural Programming Language |
| | Prolog, as a programming language, is a little unusual. | | | C can be viewed as a procedural language by thinking of using it without functions; i.e., all functions return void, and information is passed to and from functions through their arguments only. | | | One programs in a procedural language by writing procedures that carry out particular operations. |
