Specification language suitable for procedural programs
Hello,
I'm wondering what methods and tools are used to describe procedural programs? Is UML suitable for such tasks? I've studied SDL in the university - we used it for specification of telecommunication services. Is it suitable for general description of procedural programs?
If not what language or method could you recommend for such things?
Thank you very much for your answers!
p.s. I hope I'm not messing up the terminology - in procedural programming I mean for example C programming.

createlang
CREATELANG(1) PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation CREATELANG(1)
NAME
createlang - install a PostgreSQL procedural language
SYNOPSIS
createlang [connection-option...] langname [dbname]
createlang [connection-option...] --list | -l [dbname]
DESCRIPTION
createlang is a utility for adding a procedural language to a PostgreSQL database.
createlang is just a wrapper around the CREATE EXTENSION (CREATE_EXTENSION(7)) SQL command.
Caution
createlang is deprecated and may be removed in a future PostgreSQL release. Direct use of the CREATE EXTENSION command is recommended
instead.
OPTIONS
createlang accepts the following command-line arguments:
langname
Specifies the name of the procedural language to be installed. (This name is lower-cased.)
[-d] dbname, [--dbname=]dbname
Specifies the database to which the language should be added. The default is to use the database with the same name as the current
system user.
-e, --echo
Display SQL commands as they are executed.
-l, --list
Show a list of already installed languages in the target database.
-V, --version
Print the createlang version and exit.
-?, --help
Show help about createlang command line arguments, and exit.
createlang also accepts the following command-line arguments for connection parameters:
-h host, --host=host
Specifies the host name of the machine on which the server is running. If the value begins with a slash, it is used as the directory
for the Unix domain socket.
-p port, --port=port
Specifies the TCP port or local Unix domain socket file extension on which the server is listening for connections.
-U username, --username=username
User name to connect as.
-w, --no-password
Never issue a password prompt. If the server requires password authentication and a password is not available by other means such as a
.pgpass file, the connection attempt will fail. This option can be useful in batch jobs and scripts where no user is present to enter a
password.
-W, --password
Force createlang to prompt for a password before connecting to a database.
This option is never essential, since createlang will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password
authentication. However, createlang will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password. In some cases it is
worth typing -W to avoid the extra connection attempt.
ENVIRONMENT
PGDATABASE, PGHOST, PGPORT, PGUSER
Default connection parameters
This utility, like most other PostgreSQL utilities, also uses the environment variables supported by libpq (see Section 31.14, "Environment
Variables", in the documentation).
DIAGNOSTICS
Most error messages are self-explanatory. If not, run createlang with the --echo option and see the respective SQL command for details.
Also, any default connection settings and environment variables used by the libpq front-end library will apply.
NOTES
Use droplang(1) to remove a language.
EXAMPLES
To install the language pltcl into the database template1:
$ createlang pltcl template1
Note that installing the language into template1 will cause it to be automatically installed into subsequently-created databases as well.
