Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Programming paradigm : A fundamental style, mindset, or philosophical approach for structuring and organizing computer code through specific rules, abstractions, and computational models.
  • State : The data stored in memory at a given moment during program execution.
  • State mutation : The act of changing memory values in place over time during program execution.

Essential Points

★ Must-know

📌 A programming language is a tool such as Python, C++, or Haskell, whereas a programming paradigm is the philosophy guiding how that tool structures computation.

Further detail

  • Most modern programming languages are multi-paradigm and can support object-oriented, functional, and procedural styles simultaneously.
