Prolog.
This note presents
major features of programming languages, with primary emphasis on the role of
particular language features in writing good software; programming language
design alternatives; various programming paradigms embodied in languages, such
as procedural, data-flow, functional and object-oriented languages.
Objective of
this note is to teach the fundamental principles of programming, making use of
the typical aspects of the object-oriented, functional, and imperative
programming paradigms. Such basic principles are presented by referring to the
Java programming language.
This note covers the
following topics: Functional Languages, Imperative Languages, Object-Oriented
