Step-by-step explanation:

A procedural abstraction is a mental model of what we want a subprogram to do (but not how to do it). Is a particular mechanism for separating use from implementation, is tied to the idea that each particular method performs a well-specified function.

The idea is that we have code that can work with a variety of different situations depending on how its parameters are set when it is called, this makes a program shorter and easier to understand.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
