Procedural vs oop programming

[Klen]

Which one you use and why?

[k0nr4d]

Both but mostly procedural, because it's easier for clients to follow when they want to make minor changes themselves without actually knowing PHP.

95% oop for C#

I am quite sure how oop is only way to do it in c#,unless dude which was holding a class about it was deliberately showing only oop way

[editeur]

I write in Erlang and use functional one.
There's not much difference between OOP and procedure, both are imperative and both work with mutable data.

You can write C# without using the OOP thought or design.

A language in itself is not OOP, its how you use it. A "modelling approach" so to speak

Good to know that.

I prefer oop (easier to maintain, easier to extend) in PHP. I however dont like the new style with namespaces and where evertyhing is a object (its really slow compared to classic oop/procedural).

It depends on the problem but clearly oop is the common choice.

I prefer poop programming over Procedural...

Yes it depend on problem and needs.Dont see point of using oop if you just want to print hello world.

Bump for more programmers

I've done lots of oops programming.

Oops, forgot the semicolon. Oops, forgot the bracket. Oops, gonna need an admin panel for that, aren't we. Oops, sorry I wiped out the database, but it's a whole lot cleaner now, don't you think.

When I was in the military I was involved in one program where we went Oops, there goes the Chinese Embassy.

I've been doing exclusively Oops programming since I started in on this shit and that is a long, long time ago. Figure I'll probably be doing Oops programming till the day I die.

;p

It depends on the size of the project imo.

If it's really small then procedural makes a lot of sense. It's quicker to code in most cases & as k0nr4d said easier for non-programmers to edit.

However, as the scope & size of the project increases, you will find OOP to be much more efficient. Especially when you have multiple programmers working on the same code base.
