    Lecture - 1
    • Paradigms of programming languages,
    • Evolution of OO methodology,
    Paradigm of Programming Languages

    • Since today, many programming styles have been


    tried.
    Such as
    • modular programming,
    • top-down programming,
    • bottom-up programming and
    • structured programming.

    • When computers were first invented, programming


    was done by manually toggling in the binary machine
    instructions.
    • As long as programs were just a few hundred
    instructions long, this approach worked.

    • As programs grew, assembly language was


    invented to deal with larger, increasingly complex
    programs by using symbolic representations for
    machine instructions.

    • As programs continued to grow, high-level


    languages were introduced that gave the
    programmer more tools.
    • Computer language innovation and development occurs
    for two fundamental reasons:
    ■ To adapt to changing environments and uses
    ■ To improve the art of programming

    Major Programming Paradigms

    Imperative [First do this then do that ]


    Logical [Answer a Question via search
    for a solution.]
    Functional [views all subprogams as a
    functions]
    Object-Oriented [real-world objects are each
    viewed as seperate entities]
    Modern Programming Era begins with: C
    • C was a direct result of the need for a structured,
    efficient, high-level language.

    • Prior to C,
    • FORTRAN was not very good for systems code.

    • BASIC wasn’t very powerful, and its lack of structure


    so not very useful for large programs.

    • ASSEMBLY lang. was not easy to learn or use


    effectively. Further, debugging assembly code can be
    quite difficult.
    C is considered as a beginning of the modern age of
    computer languages.

    • It solved the troubles from earlier languages

    • C is a powerful, efficient, structured language that is


    relatively easy to learn.

    • Prior to the invention of C,


    • computer languages were generally designed either as
    academic exercises or by bureaucratic committees.

    • C was designed, implemented, and developed by real


    working programmers.
    Evolution of OO Methodology
    • Even with structured programming methods, if a
    project reaches a certain size, it becomes complex.

    • To solve this problem, a new way to program was


    invented, called object-oriented programming (OOP).

    • OOP methodology that helps organize complex


    programs through the use of inheritance,
    encapsulation, and polymorphism.
    • Simula  Smalltalk  C++  Java  Visual J++ 
    C# .NET
