 Computer programming - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
Initially, Pascal was a hypothetical language intended to teach students <b>structuredb> programming, and generations of students have "cut their teeth" on Pascal as an introductory language in undergraduate courses.
Programming a computer can be performed in one of numerous languages, ranging from a higher-level language to writing directly in low-level machine code (that is, code that more directly controls the specifics of the computer's hardware).
Computer programming is the craft of writing useful, maintainable, and extensible instructions which can be interpreted by a computing system to perform a meaningful task.

 E.W. Dijkstra Archive: <b>Structuredb> programming (EWD268)
A program therefore should be conceived and understood as a member of a family; it should be so <b>structuredb> out of components that various members of this family, sharing components, do not only share the correctness demonstration of the shared components but also of the shared substructure.
By "intrinsically large" I mean programs that are large due to the complexity of their task, in contrast to programs that have exploded (by inadequacy of the equipment, unhappy decisions, poor understanding of the problem, etc.).
The immediate consequence of this design decision is that the abstract statements operating upon the original abstract data structure have to be redefined in terms of algorithmic refinements operating upon the new data structures in terms of which it was decided to represent the original abstract data structure.

With the advent of <b>structuredb> programming and GOTO-less programming, a method is needed to model computation in simply ordered structures, each representing a complete thought possibly defined in terms of other thoughts as yet undefined.
Certain control structures in programming languages, such as iteration, have no direct translation to flowchart language and must be built from simpler control structures, thereby losing the forest in the trees.
During one of these phases a flowchart may be drawn to describe the program at a level of abstraction somewhere between the problem statement and the code of the completed program.

 MODERN PROGRAMMING PRACTICES
<b>Structuredb> Programming itself, the restriction during design and implementation to the three programming constructs of sequence, alternation, and iteration, was considered only one component of <b>structuredb> programming.
The awarding of a contract in February 1974 to IBM to define <b>structuredb> programming was an outgrowth of that briefing.
No textbook presentation of Harlan Mills' ideas on <b>structuredb> programming was available until 1979 (Linger 79), and even that book does not discuss the broader issues of the environment in which <b>structuredb> programming operates, and the issues involved with managing teams who are applying <b>structuredb> programming techniques, that are considered in the RADC study.

 SIGCHI Bulletin Vol.29 No.4, October 1997: <b>Structuredb> Programmers Learning Object-Oriented Programming
With object-oriented programming (OOP) in Java and C++ increasing in popularity, retraining current <b>structuredb> programmers (e.g., users of C or COBOL) is of considerable interest in the computer discipline.
One commonly expressed problem with this training task is that the interaction between programmers and their programming language environment appears to be significantly altered during both design and coding phases when using an OOP language versus earlier, so-called <b>structuredb>, approaches.
In <b>structuredb> programming, while analysis starts with a consideration of real-world problems, the real-world focus is lost as requirements are transformed into a series of data flow diagrams.

 Jackson <b>Structuredb> Programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jackson <b>Structuredb> Programming or JSP is a method for <b>structuredb> programming based on correspondences between data stream structure and program structure.
Jackson <b>Structuredb> Programming was seen by many as related to Warnier <b>Structuredb> Programming, but the latter method focused almost exclusively on the structure of the output stream.
Jackson's aim was to improve the general standard of COBOL programming, but the method is still useful when coding with modern programming languages such as C and Perl.

 Knuth: Literate Programming
Literate programming is a methodology that combines a programming language with a documentation language, thereby making programs more robust, more portable, more easily maintained, and arguably more fun to write than programs that are written only in a high-level language.
The main idea is to treat a program as a piece of literature, addressed to human beings rather than to a computer.
Most of the errors in the first two printings were corrected in the third printing, but several minor errors have been found by sharp-eyed readers of the fourth printing (1998).

 The Pascal Programming Language
His principle objectives for Pascal were for the language to be efficent to implement and run, allow for the development of well <b>structuredb> and well organized programs, and to serve as a vehicle for the teaching of the important concepts of computer programming.
Pascal also draws programming components from ALGOL 68 and ALGOL-W. The original published definition for the Pascal language appeared in 1971 with latter revisons published in 1973.
It was designed to teach programming techiques and topics to college students and was the language of choice to do so from the late 1960's to the late 1980's.
