Abstract: Main styles, or paradigms of programming – imperative, functional, logic, and object-oriented – are shortly described and compared, and corresponding programming techniques are outlined. Programming languages are classified in accordance with the main style and techniques supported. It is argued that profound education in computer science should include learning base programming techniques of all main programming paradigms.

Keywords: programming styles, paradigms of programming, programming techniques, integration of programming techniques, learning programming paradigms

ACM Classification Keywords: D.1 Programming Techniques – Functional Programming, Logic Programming, Object-oriented Programming
