From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) :
procedural language
A term used in contrast to declarative language
to describe a language where the programmer specifies an
explicit sequences of steps to follow to produce a result.
The term should not be confused with "{imperative language".
An example (non-imperative) procedural language is LOGO,
which specifies sequences of steps to perform but does not
have an internal state.
Other procedural languages include Basic, Pascal, C, and
Modula-2.
