    A procedural language goes through the code step by step with a few
    jumps and returns to and from sub routines and such. <br>
    <br>
    OOP Object Oriented languages allow, and encourage you to create, or
    if you will describe entities called objects which usually consist
    of sets of procedures and often specific data to deal with the
    objects as an entity. <br>
    <br>
    Any OOP language can be written as a procedural language by not
    using OOP tools, but only a few procedural languages can be used for
    OOP and you have to stand on your head to accomplish it, if you can.<br>

                                C is procedural, which is easier to
