It has not to be confused with [[Macro (computer science)|macros]], the mechanism often found in programming languages (like [[C (programming language)|C]] or [[Scala (programming language)|Scala]]) to express substitution rules for program pieces.

Macroprogramming shares similar goals (related to programming a system by a global perspective) with [[multitier programming]], [[choreographic programming]], and [[aggregate computing]].

The following program in the Regiment language <ref name="Newton Morrisett Welsh 2007 p.
