What is difference between structural language and object oriented language?

Answer 1

I think there is no any difference between object oriented programming language. Because somebody have written that vb is object based language because there is no inheritance, but javascript has no classes and no inheritance but javascript is also object oriented scripting language and java is also object oriented language vb has no inheritance but classes is.So vb is object based language This is not clear that difference between object oriented and object based. if i am wrong than what should be your answer and if i am wright than no problem But first i am requesting to the developer of any programming language that please define the difference between object oriented and object based languages.

Answer 2

In short, object oriented programming is simply structured programming that makes use of classes to combine data and the methods that modify that data into self-contained entities.

Structured programming is an extension of procedural programming (spaghetti code) that incorporates structured loops and procedure calls to produce more orderly code that is easier to both read and maintain.

Answer 3

An object-based language is any language that supports class and object structures. Object-oriented languages support polymorphism and inheritance, along with classes and objects. Therefore, all object-oriented languages are also object-based (Java as an example), but not all object-based languages are object-oriented (VisualBasic as an example). It can also refer to prototype-based languages, which is another subset of object-oriented languages. Protoype-based languages are classless, and just contain objects. JavaScript is a prototype-based language.

Answer 4

A structural program relies on a structured approach to solving a problem, which is usually step by step. The program is based on blocks of logic, each calling the other to solve a problem.

An object oriented program uses objects, which are an encapsulation of both data and tightly-coupled logic. They rely on messages or events to cause things to happen.
