    What is procedural language?

    I am going to study programming like c++.

    I have encountered that c++ is procedural.

    Does procedural means that the program is created really on console base or gui base?

    I would say that C is a procedural language, and given that C++ extends upon C, it inherits the procedural paradigm, but adds the object orientation.

    It has nothing to do with consoles or GUIs.

    Procedural programming is a step by step method of programming; whereas, object oriented takes into consideration methods and properties.

    Early programming languages like COBOL and Fortran are considered procedural languages
    c++ can be used as both: procedural and object oriented programming
