Understanding Programming Paradigms
Programming paradigms are fundamental approaches to managing complexity in software development. Object-oriented programming (OOP) centers around modeling real-world entities as objects, combining state and behavior, which helps encapsulate complexity. In contrast, functional programming is focused on data manipulation, where immutability and pure functions play a vital role in handling calculations and parallel processing. Each paradigm has its strengths, but the introduction of data-oriented programming (DOP) emphasizes the importance of prioritizing data representation in software designs, allowing it to coexist alongside OOP and functional programming.
