Modula is a strongly typed, modular procedural language.

Designed by Niklaus Wirth for reliable and maintainable software.

Focuses on modules, interfaces, and separate compilation.

Historically used in education and system programming.

Encourages clean code, modularity, and type safety.

Is Modula free?

Yes - compilers are often open-source or educational.

Can Modula be used for modern development?

Not commonly - mostly historical or educational.

Does Modula support OOP?

Modula-2 is procedural; Modula-3 adds limited OOP.

How does Modula compare to Pascal?

Modula introduces modules and separate compilation.

Is Modula suitable for system programming?

Yes - it was designed for modular and reliable system-level code.
