Procedural LanguagesProcedural languages are command-driven or statement-oriented languages. A program includes a sequence of statements, and the implementation of each statement generates the interpreter to modify the value of one or more areas in its memory that enters a new state.The format of procedural languages arestatement1;statement2;C, Pascal, FORTRAN, and equivalent ...

The compiler demands a block of memory for the operating system. The compiler uses this block of memory to implement the compiled program. This block of memory is known as storage management. A compiler should execute is to designate the resources of the target machine to define the data objects ... Read More

Sequence ControlSequence control defines the line-by-line implementation by which statements are implemented sequentially, in the equivalent order in which they occur in the program. It can move out a sequence of read or write operations, arithmetic operations, or assignments to variables. A sequence control structure can be either implicit or ... Read More

SubprogramsA subprogram is defined as a set of statements that can be reused at multiple places in a program when convenient. This reuse results in multiple types of savings, from memory space to coding time. Such reuse is also an abstraction, for the analysis of subprograms computations are restored in ... Read More

The major operations on sequential files are as follows −Creating a file − The primary creation of a file is also defined as the loading of the file. In some implementations, space is first designated to the file, thus the data are loaded into that Skelton.Opening a file − Before ... Read More

The major attributes for specifying data structures include the following −Number of components − A data structure can be of fixed size if the number of components is even during its lifetime or of the variable size if the number of components transforms dynamically. Variable size data structure types generally ... Read More

The set of operations defined for a data type decided how data objects of that type can be manipulated. The operations can be primitive operations, which defines they are stated as an element of the language definition or they can be programmer-defined operations, as an element of class definitions.An operation ...

Type checking is the activity of providing that the operands of an operator are of compatible types. A compatible type is one that is legal for the operator or is enabled under language rules to be implicitly modified by compiler-generated code to a legal type. This automatic conversion is known ...

A programming language is an artificial language that can control the behaviour of a machine, specifically in computers. Programming language like natural languages is defined by syntactic and semantic rules which define their structure and meaning respectively. The hierarchical structure of programming languages is as follows −Programs − Computer programs ... Read More
