Structured programming
| Hi-index | 0.00 |
In spite of the lack of a single agreed upon definition of structured programming, the term has been used more or less consistently to describe certain kinds of programming methodologies. Peter Denning has noted both the dangers of using an undefined term and the benefits that can accrue from a precise definition and has, therefore, asked if it is not time to define "structured programming" [Den 74]. On the other hand Zelkowitz [Zel 74] has argued that it is not yet time to define a not so well defined term. However, in the hopes that an attempted definition might be useful just for achieving this understanding, this paper offers some arguments for a particular proposed semantic definition of structured programming.
