Imperative (Procedural) Pseudocode:
- Input: Get the length and width of the rectangle from the user.
- Process: Calculate the area by multiplying length and width (Area = length * width).
- Output: Display the calculated area to the user.
Object-Oriented Approach:
In an OOP approach, we would create a Rectangle class. This class would have:
- Attributes (Data):
lengthandwidth(these would be instance variables). - Methods (Functions): A method called
calculateArea()that would multiply thelengthandwidthattributes to return the area.
To use this, we would create an instance (object) of the Rectangle class, set its length and width attributes, and then call the calculateArea() method to get the area. This approach encapsulates the data (length and width) and the operation (calculating the area) within a single unit, making the code more organized and reusable.
