I hear so many of the 'wow look x is sooooo freaking cool'. which it might in actuality be, but my doubt lies generally with the authors patience to digest and then make a statement like that.<BR/><BR/>So I totally agree with you. :) In fact, IMHO, for simpler, well defined tasks procedural programs might as well be the most straightforward and efficient ones as they come with the least baggage.<BR/><BR/>"Take my favourite programming language, Lisp. It has wonderful support for procedural, object oriented and functional programming. Many of my Lisp programs end up using all three paradigms." (well, ok, many might be too much there hehe)quasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04608027626804974925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11685859.post-55008874254142607052009-04-07T02:51:00.000+05:302009-04-07T02:51:00.000+05:30This controversial topic attracts my comment like ...This controversial topic attracts my comment like a magnet.<BR/><BR/>I call no programming paradigm evil. Procedural programming is no exception.<BR/><BR/>However, composition of data and operations can be expressed more powerfully with the object oriented programming. Greater powers of composition greatly facilitate managing change, hiding complexity, writing self documenting and testable code.<BR/><BR/>Such powers bring complexities of their own. I am not religious about programming paradigms. I tend to default to procedural programming, and let the objects evolve out of the procedures as the software grows. I also make liberal use of functional programming.<BR/><BR/>Take my favourite programming language, <A HREF="http://www.ruby-lang.org" REL="nofollow">Ruby</A>. It has wonderful support for procedural, object oriented and functional programming. Many of my ruby programs end up using all three paradigms.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
