Multi-paradigm programming language A multiparadigm programming language is a programming language that supports more than one programming paradigm. It allows, as described by Bjarne Stroustrup, "a program using more than one programming style".
Multi-planar reformatting Multi-planar reformatting (MPR) is a volume visualization method where orthogonal planes are used to "slice" the volume. The content of the volume where it intersects the plane is displayed on the surface of the planes, and by moving the planes back and forth it is possible to get a good impression of what the volume looks like.
