Answer:
Procedural programming
Explanation:
In procedural programming, the main aim is to use procedures to execute instructions and operations. A procedure is actually a step-by-step and/or ordered sequence of instructions to be executed and operations to be performed. A procedure could be a statement, a function, a subprogram or a subroutine that are invoked or run to perform specific tasks.
Compared to object oriented programming (OOP) style which uses classes and objects to implement functionalities, procedural programming makes use of modules. Large application programs are divided into sub-programs called modules that can be run and tested separately. In other words, a module is a part of a big application program that can run separately.
Examples of programming languages that use the procedural programming style are;
i. FORTRAN - Formula Translator
ii. COBOL - Common Basic Oriented Language
iii. Java (Java also uses the object oriented programming style)
iv. BASIC - Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.
