Modular programming is a way of organizing a computer program into smaller parts called modules. Each module contains the necessary code to run one specific part of the final computer program. Modular programs are simpler to understand.^[1] They are also more simple to maintain. Different programmers can each make different modules.^[1] Usually, each module is designed to do only one thing.^[2]

Uses

Some notable languages that use the module concept: Ada, C++, C#, D, Fortran, Go, Haskell, JavaScript,^[3] Objective-C, OCaml, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, Rust, and V (Vlang).^[4]
