imperative, and procedural (could be a step toward ->) vs Declarative program:
statements change a program state

COBOL = Common Business Oriented Language
Pascal also unit of pressure: 1N/m^2
FORTRAN = Formula Translator = general-purpose imperative programming lang. VS declarative lang

==================
Python chapter 3
http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/html/thinkpython004.html
Python provides two ways to import modules; we have already seen one:
>>> import math
>>> print math
<module ‘math’ (built-in)>
>>> print math.pi
3.14159265359
If you import math, you get a module object named math. The module object contains constants like pi and functions like sin and exp.
But if you try to access pi directly, you get an error.
>>> print pi
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “<stdin>”, line 1, in <module>
NameError: name ‘pi’ is not defined
As an alternative, you can import an object from a module like this:
>>> from math import pi
Now you can access pi directly, without dot notation.
>>> print pi
3.14159265359
Or you can use the star operator to import everything from the module:
>>> from math import *
>>> cos(pi)
-1.0
The advantage of importing everything from the math module is that your code can be more concise. The disadvantage is that there might be conflicts between names defined in different modules, or between a name from a module and one of your variables
