🔄 9.4 Programming Paradigms Comparison

Understand the difference between **Imperative** (how to do it), **Declarative** (what to do), and **Object-Oriented** (data and behavior combined) approaches.

Imperative

# Step-by-step instructions
total = 0
for i in range(1, 6):
    total += i
print(total)

Declarative (SQL-like)

-- What you want, not how
SELECT SUM(value) 
FROM numbers 
WHERE value <= 5;

Object-Oriented

class Calculator:
    def sum_range(self, n):
        return sum(range(1, n+1))

calc = Calculator()
print(calc.sum_range(5))

⚙️ 9.5 Program Translation Process

Source Code (Python)

def greet(name):
    return f"Hello, {name}"

print(greet("Student"))
