Module 


   . Self-contained procedures (algorithms) that are generally data
     independent and used to compartmentalize common functions for use
     throughout a system.  This is accomplished principally by passing
     parameters.

     In Clipper, you can use procedures and user-defined functions to
     create modular programs.


   . The smallest unit of code that be complied at one time.  In the
     case of Clipper, the module corresponds to the object file (.OBJ)
     output by CLIPPER.EXE.  From a logical perspective a module is
     represents a major function within a program.  Typically, you
     create an object module for each major function in your application
     program.

     Modules consist of segments.  When linking, the linker calculates
     the amount of memory required for each segment of a module and
     decides the address in memory to place it.
