   ------------------------
   Procedural programming:
   ------------------------
       Procedural programming is a programming paradigm, derived from structured programming, based upon the concept of the procedure call. Procedures, also        known as routines, subroutines, or functions.
  
   Procedural programming languages include C, Go, Fortran, Pascal, and BASIC.

   ------------------------------------------------------
   A. Computer trajectories for a satellite launcher.
   ------------------------------------------------------
      
       01. For Computer trajectories for a satellite launcher C and C++ is still dominant (and with very strict compliance to ISO standards),
       02. Labs will generally stick with either C or C++ based on developer familiarity, confidence in the compiler toolchain, and internal coding            standards.
       03. There are compelling reasons for both languages for real-time flight software, but each organization tends to stick with one or the other.
       04. Ancillary instruments, on the other hand, are commonly programmed in Forth, C, and increasingly modern scripting languages like Lua.

   ------------------------------------------------------  
   B. Monitoring input device feeding data from an experiment to the computer.
   ------------------------------------------------------
       01. An embedded system is a computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system, often with real-time computing   
       02. It is embedded as part of a complete device often including hardware and mechanical parts.
       03. Embedded systems control many devices in common use today.
       04. In general embedded systems uses internally C programming language.
      
   ------------------------------------------------------  
   C. Process the day's transactions at an ATM (automated teller machine).
   ------------------------------------------------------
       01. The ATM machine is a hardware and such aspects of programming falls under embedded system programming.
       02. ATM machines used C and C++ programming languages.
