Question 3

What are the characteristics of procedural programming?

Answer

The characteristics of procedural programming are:

  1. Procedural programming follows a top-down approach.
  2. The program is divided into blocks of codes called functions, where each function performs a specific task.
  3. Procedural programs model real-world processes as 'procedures' operating on 'data'.
  4. The data and functions are detached from each other.
  5. The data moves freely in a program.
  6. It is easy to follow the logic of a program.
  7. A function can access other function's data by calling that function.
