In a philosophic, epistemologic sense, a paradigm is a whole (different) way of thinking about something. | |||
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradigm | |||
A [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_paradigm programming paradigm] often carries a sense of 'a whole different way of setting up a system, that also directs how you would implement things in it', which could include things as broad as [[functional programming]] (and others in [[Programming_language_typology_and_glossary#Imperative,_declarative,_functional,_etc.|such a typology]]), but also gets used for more specific, such as the sort of code you have to write for GPUs, and ''perhaps'' things like MPI (a way of messaging/parallelizing). | |||
...or sometimes an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_paradigm algorithmic paradigm], which groups [[algorithms]]. | |||
Say, recursion, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming and divide and conquer are useful ways to tackle problems, but not concrete. | |||
In scientific-style experiment design, an experimental paradigm often refers to a fairly specific experiment setup / protocol, a way of testing for a specific thing. | |||

In linguistics, a [[Language_units_large_and_small#Lexeme.2C_lemma.2C_paradigm|paradigm]] complete set of related word forms associated with a given lexeme (inflections/conjugations). | |||
This is broad enough that it might be split into: | |||
* inflectional paradigms: changes in grammatical categories such as tense, mood, number, gender, and case | |||
* lexical paradigms | |||
. For example, the paradigms for the verb "to run" would show the forms "run," "ran," "run," and "running." | |||
Lexical paradigms | |||
setup or way of conducting a certain type of experiment (a protocol) that is defined by certain fine-tuned standards, and often has a theoretical background. A paradigm in this technical sense, however, is not a way of thinking as it is in the epistemological meaning (paradigm). | |||
