1 Structured Approach 2 Procedural Paradigm
Focuses on a sequential flow of instructions
. Emphasis on procedures and functions for code
organization.

Discovering Object-Oriented Programming: Java
and C++
Object-Oriented Paradigm Data Abstraction Inheritance and Polymorphism
Focuses on objects and their Hides implementation details and Promotes code reusability and
interactions. exposes only necessary information. extensibility.
Embracing Functional
Programming: Python and
Haskell
Functions as First-Class Citizens
1 Functions can be passed as arguments and returned as
values.
Immutability
2 Data is immutable promoting predictability and avoiding side

.
Declarative Style
3 Focuses on what needs to be done rather than how to do it.
Emerging Trends: Swift, Rust,
and Elixir
1 Swift
Modern language developed by Apple for iOS and macOS
development.
2 Rust
Memory-safe language with a focus on performance and
concurrency.
3 Elixir
Functional language built on the Erlang VM, known for
scalability and fault tolerance.
