Ok, but it seems that word processors edit documents, not a source code 
file.

In the case of documents, ok, it makes sense to think in terms of 
paragraphs.  It also makes sense to think in terms of paragraph when 
editing a text file in Emacs which is a text file document.

In the case of source code file, what is a paragraph?

Editing a source code file in Emacs and typing M-} (forward-paragraph), 
the point goes to the next empty line, no matter where this empty line 
is located (in the middle of a comment, command, function, etc.)

Editing a source code file in OpenOffice, each source code line is a 
paragraph.
