History
Traditional programming languages have been used to support modular programming - since at least the 1960s. Modular programming is a loosely defined concept with no official definition. It is, in essence, simply a programming technique. Exactly where modularized programming ends, and Dynamically Linked Libraries or Object-oriented programming starts in this context is subjective. It might be defined as the natural predecessor of OOP, or an evolutionary step beyond it - depending upon viewpoint.
