Advantages of Imperative Programming
Below are some advantages of imperative programming.
- Imperative programming depends on defined instructions to achieve the final result from the program. Therefore, code can be easy to understand and straightforward.
- Order of performing operations is completely controlled by developer because of control flow in program execution.
- Bugs can be easily traced because program is assembled from block of codes to perform smaller tasks and based on step-by-step commands.
- Memory allocation and manipulation is directly linked in imperative programming. Therefore, imperative programming has efficient utilization of machine memory.
What is Imperative Programming?
The computer programming paradigm defines the style of programming, approach to solve problem and method of computer systems towards providing solutions use programming. There is a classification of programming paradigms into two broad paradigms i.e., imperative and declarative. This article is based on the introduction to imperative programming, its key features, its advantages and disadvantages.
