[[Category:Encyclopedia]]'''Procedural programming''' describes a way of decomposition of a programming problem, when a larger problem is decomposed into smaller ones by means of subprograms. This type of decomposition is called ''procedural''. It is typical for [[imperative programming]] and functional programming paradigms. |
|||
In [[object-oriented programming]] procedural decomposition plays a subordinate role. Subprograms become methods of objects, which replace the former as building blocks. |
|||
Historically procedural programming played a decisive role in transformation of programming into engineering activity. Until present the great majority of reusable software components is designed, deployed, and maintained in the form libraries of subprograms. |
