People say that C is a procedural language. That’s true, but it doesn’t say much that’s useful about the language. What would be more useful is to call it a structural language - actual C programming is all about data structures. Defining them, passing them around, etc. 90% of the effort in a good C program goes into designing the data structures to make the code that handles them as simple and direct as possible.
