💡 Programming Paradigms — More Than Just Syntax
Programming isn’t just what language you use — it’s how you think about solving problems.
Here are 4 major paradigms that shape how we code 👇
1. Imperative — Step-by-step instructions. You tell the computer how to do things.
→ e.g., C, Python, Java
2. Declarative — You describe what you want, not how to get it.
→ e.g., SQL, HTML, React
3. Object-Oriented — Model your code like real-world entities (objects with state & behavior).
→ e.g., Java, C++, Python
4. Functional — No side effects, just pure functions & composition.
→ e.g., Haskell, Elixir, Scala, JS (with FP style)
🧠 The magic happens when you mix paradigms — using the right mindset for the problem at hand
