4.1. Procedural Programming Paradigm

Try these first

1. 1.

   Define procedural programming in your own words.

   Hint

   Think of how a recipe divides tasks when cooking.

2. 2.

   What is a function in programming?

   Hint

   Consider its purpose in simplifying code.

3. 3.

   What is the primary focus of procedural programming?

   • Data structuring
   • Procedure calls
   • Object encapsulation

   Hint

   Recall the definition discussed in class.

4. 4.

   True or False: Procedural programming encourages code reusability.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Think about why we create functions.

5. 5.

   Create a C program that includes multiple functions to perform various mathematical operations like addition and subtraction. Explain how each function is structured.

   Hint

   Divide each task logically into separate functions.

6. 6.

   Describe a scenario where procedural programming would be less efficient compared to another paradigm. Provide reasoning.

   Hint

   Consider the needs of large systems.
