Question

For each of the following terms, what the term refers to and why it would be important and/ or relevant in the design of a practical programming language:

1) Modularity:

2) Dynamic semantics:

Answer 1

So, discussing the context of the following 2 terms with respect to the designing of a practical programming language

Modularity: - Modularity in practical programming language is very necessary as modularity of a program refers to the parts/ modules in which a program is written, and as we all know we need changes be it a software of daily life, so if a software is written in parts/ modules and is not too much interconnected it will be easy to make changes in the particular software, or a particular part of the software, which will be much more easier and less complicated for the person updating or making changes to the software.

Dynamic Semantics: - Dynamic semantics also called execution semantics of a language defines how and when the various constructs of a language should produce a program behavior.

Dynamic Semantics if also an important part of the program as it informs the system when a particular part of the program has to be executed, and how it has to be done, this is done so that the program runs efficiently and as desired.

This also improves the functionality of the code written in a particular programming language.
