Object-oriented programming (OOP) focuses on creating reusable, modular code by organizing data and behavior into objects, while procedural programming emphasizes step-by-step instructions and functions to perform tasks.
Procedural programming focuses on steps and functions. You write instructions that operate on separate data. It’s linear and straightforward (like C).
Object-oriented programming (OOP) focuses on objects that bundle data and behavior together. Code is organized around models like “User” or “Car” (common in Java, C++).
Procedural is simpler and efficient for small systems. OOP helps manage complexity in large systems through encapsulation and reuse. In practice, most real software mixes both approaches.
