The document is a lesson plan on basic programming concepts that: 1) Defines a program as a series of organized instructions that direct a computer to perform tasks, and defines a programming language as a set of words, symbols, and codes that allows humans to communicate with computers. 2) Discusses five generations of programming languages from first to fifth generation and provides examples such as BASIC, Pascal, C, and Smalltalk. 3) Compares structured programming and object-oriented programming, noting that structured programming uses a top-down design model while object-oriented programming combines data and functions into objects.

- 4. Learning Outcomes State the definition of program . State the definition of programming language. Identify the generations of low-level programming languages with examples. Identify the generations of high-level programming languages with examples.
- 5. Definition of Program A computer program is a series of organised instructions that directs a computer to perform tasks.
- 6. Definition of Programming Language A programming language is a set of words, symbols and codes that enables humans to communicate with computers.
- 7. Example of Programming Languages Hundreds of programming languages exist today. Each language has its own standard or rules for writing the commands and/or instructions. Examples of programming languages are: BASIC (Beginner’s All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) Pascal C Smalltalk

- 14. STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING often uses a top-down design model where developers map out the overall program structure into separate subsections from top to bottom. In the top-down design model, programs are drawn as rectangles. A top-down design means that the whole program is broken down into smaller sections that are known as modules. A program may have a module or several modules.
- 15. STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING Structured programming is beneficial for organising and coding computer programs which employ a hierarchy of modules. This means that control is passed downwards only through the hierarchy. Examples of structured programming languages include Ada, Pascal and Fortran.
- 16. OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING The object-oriented approach refers to a special type of programming approach that combines data with functions to create objects.
- 17. OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING In an object-oriented program, the object have relationships with one another. One of the earliest OOP languages is Smalltalk. Java, Visual Basic and C++ are examples of popular OOP languages.
- 18. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STRUCTURED AND OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING Structured programming often uses a top-down design model. The object-oriented programming approach uses objects.
