Programming Paradigms
Paradigm can also be termed as method to solve some problem or do
some task.
Programming paradigm is an approach to solve problem using some
programming language or also we can say it is a method to solve a
problem using tools and techniques that are available to us following some
approach.
There are lots for programming language that are known but all of them
need to follow some strategy when they are implemented and this
methodology/strategy is paradigms.
Why we need Programming Paradigm?

1.1 Procedural Programming Paradigm
1.2 Object Oriented Programming
1.3 Parallel processing approach
Parallel processing is the processing of program instructions
by dividing them among multiple processors.
A parallel processing system posses many numbers of
processor with the objective of running a program in less time
by dividing them.
This approach seems to be like divide and conquer.
Examples are NESL (one of the oldest one) and C/C++ also
supports because of some library function.
2. Declarative Programming Paradigm
2.1 Logic Programming Paradigm
2.2 Functional Programming Paradigm
2.3 Database/Data driven programming approach
This programming methodology is based on data and its movement.
Program statements are defined by data rather than hard-coding a series of steps.
A database program is the heart of a business information system and provides file
creation, data entry, update, query and reporting functions.
There are several programming languages that are developed mostly for database
application.
For example SQL.
CREATE DATABASE databaseAddress;
CREATE TABLE Addr (
PersonID int,
LastName varchar(200),
FirstName varchar(200),
Address varchar(200),
City varchar(200),
State varchar(200)
);
