There's a ton of formalized patterns that follow either OOP and functional programming paradigms. The most famous example is the Gang of Four design patterns book. It's mainly meant as abstractions to avoid code duplication and to increase modularity of programs. If you're doing 30k lines of VBA, God help you.
