This is a video about the concept of procedures in programming. This concept applies to most modern languages including Python, JavaScript, C# and many more.

Procedures are closely related to functions, and I actually use the terms interchangeable in this video although strictly there is a difference.

Topics covered:

identifying repeating sequences of instructions
calling procedures to write more efficient programs by reusing instructions
having fun playing an addictive game and learning while you play

Functions return values when called, but procedures don't.
