I have spent the vast majority of my programming career using Java and very OO based C++. I am really interested in learning to think more procedurally, so I have been starting to do some practice using a more restricted subset of C++ (basically C) and trying to keep my code very procedural.My question lies in the area of how to structure a program. In Java, I am constantly thinking of objects... so when I create a class I am thinking of:What is this object representing?What can this object do?What do others need to be able to do to it?What do I expose, what do I hide?EtcIn the case of procedural code, how does this sort of thing work? Lets say wanted a struct to represent a Car. I would create a header to define it in... but where do functions go that should operate on a car type? Would you also define all Car related functions in the same file line you would a Java class? Am I totally thinking about this the wrong way, in that there should not be any Car related functions since the emphasis should not be on the Car object but on the functions themselves? IS the idea of a member function totally thrown out the window?The bottom line is my brain has been wired to think about Objects, Encapsulation, Polymorphism, etc.. and I cant seem to wrap my head around anything else. How can I practice?Any advice is appreciated!
