Why Function

Function-oriented programming (FOP) struggled with modeling real-world entities and managing state and behavior, leading to the rise of object-oriented programming (OOP). OOP introduced concepts like encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism, enhancing code organization and maintainability. The transition to OOP represented a shift in mindset towards better handling complex systems in modern software engineering.
