Well I think "types of languages" can not be strict, unless a language is crafted to follow one-and-only-one paradigm. If you have types of languages, some languages will perfectly fit one type, but others (particularly C++) may allow several paradigms, I wouldn't give them only one type.

Then, think of such examples : a Java program using only static members (or singletons) vs a good POO C++ program. The former is closer to C-style modules than the latter. And there are examples of OO C programs (glib/gtk).

It can be tricky. I think your categories apply to actual programs rather than languages. Then some languages are designed to provide one paradigm, so programs in this language will probably end up in only one of your categories, but not all of them (badly designed ones or other exceptions).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
