Structured Programming

Structured programming relies on use of high-level control structures instead of low-level jumping

Structured programming is also loosely coupled with top-down programming and program development by stepwise refinement

Structured top-down programming by stepwise refinement:
- Start by writing the main program
  - Use selective and iterative control structures
  - Postulate and call procedures P1, ...,Pn
- Implement P1, ... Pn, and in turn the procedures they make use of
- Eventually, the procedures become so simple that they can be implemented without introducing additional procedures
