Procedural programming language

Procedural programming language is a kind of programming language that adapts concepts of procedural programming.

List

• BASIC (BASICs are innocent of most modularity in (especially) versions prior to about 1981)
• BBC BASIC
• C
• C++ (C with objects + much else)
• C# (from Microsoft, ostensibly an attempt at an improved C, introduced as a competitor to Java)
• CFM
• COBOL
• Component Pascal (an Oberon-2 variant)
• D (reengineering of C++)
• Delphi
• ECMAScript (JavaScript)
• FORTRAN (better modularity in later Standards)
• Mesa (Pascal-like proprietary systems language developed by Xerox PARC, used to develop the revolutionary Xerox Star)
• Modula-2 (fundamentally based on modules)
• Oberon (improved, smaller, faster, safer follow-on for Modula-2)
• M (more modular in its first release than a language of the time should have been; the standard has become still more modular since then)
• Pascal (successor to Algol60 and predecessor of Modula-2)
• Perl
• PL/C
• PL/1 (large general purpose language, originally for IBM mainframes)
• Rapira
• VBScript
• Visual Basic
