POP vs. OOP

In this lesson, you will learn

  • POP vs. OOPS

 

Key Differences Between POP and OOPS

Here’s a table summarizing the differences between Procedural Oriented Programming (POP) and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP).

 

FeatureProcedural Oriented Programming (POP)Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
ApproachProcedure-centricObject-centric
Main FocusFunctions and proceduresObjects and classes
Data HandlingData is exposed and can be modified by any functionData is encapsulated within objects and accessed via methods
SecurityLess secure due to global data accessMore secure due to encapsulation and data hiding
Code ReusabilityLimited, mainly through functionsHigh, through inheritance and polymorphism
InheritanceNot supportedSupported, allowing code reuse and extension
PolymorphismNot supportedSupported, allowing for dynamic method binding
AbstractionNo direct supportSupported through abstract classes and interfaces
ModularityAchieved through functionsAchieved through classes and objects
Real-World ModelingLess intuitiveMore intuitive, closely resembling real-world entities
Example LanguagesC, Pascal, FortranJava, C++, Python, C#
Ease of MaintenanceCan become complex and hard to maintain as code growsEasier to maintain due to modularity and encapsulation
Function OverloadingNot typically supportedSupported, allowing multiple functions with the same name but different parameters
