Difference Between Procedure Oriented Programming (POP) & Object Oriented Programming (OOP)
Procedure Oriented Programming
Object Oriented Programming

  • In POP, program is divided into small parts called functions

  • In OOP, program is divided into parts called objects

  • In POP,Importance is not given to data but to functions as well as sequence of actions to be done

  • In OOP, Importance is given to the data rather than procedures or functions because it works as a real world

  • POP follows Top Down approach

  • OOP follows Bottom Up approach.

  • POP does not have any access specifier.

  • OOP has access specifiers named Public, Private, Protected, etc.

  • In POP, Data can move freely from function to function in the system

  • In OOP, objects can move and communicate with each other through member functions

  • To add new data and function in POP is not so easy.

  • OOP provides an easy way to add new data and function.

  • In POP, Most function uses Global data for sharing that can be accessed freely from function to function in the system.

  • OOP In OOP, data can not move easily from function to function,it can be kept public or private so we can control the access of data.

  • POP does not have any proper way for hiding data so it is less secure.

  • OOP provides Data Hiding so provides more security.

  • In POP, Overloading is not possible.

  • in OOP, overloading is possible in the form of Function Overloading and Operator Overloading.

  • Example of POP are : C, VB, FORTRAN, Pascal.

  • Example of OOP are : C++, JAVA, VB.NET, C#.NET.
