Procedural coding is an old (but not obsolete) paradigm of programming. Java and all modern languages retain procedural traits, but also adds a major characteristic: Object Orientation (OOP). Procedural coding refers to the act of telling the computer what to do step by step, paying special attention to the process the variables and inputs will undergo in a certain order to obtain an output. Object Oriented Programing does have this same characteristic​ as well, but also provides a way of thinking of portions of code as a representation of real world objects with state and behavior. This latter approach is very useful to face relatively big programming projects (such as modern software) with less effort, gaining productivity this way.
