For view procedure in name wise

select name from mysql.proc 

below code used to list all the procedure and below code is give same result as show procedure status

select * from mysql.proc

A more specific way:

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS 
WHERE Db = DATABASE() AND Type = 'PROCEDURE'

As mentioned above,

show procedure status;

Will indeed show a list of procedures, but shows all of them, server-wide.

If you want to see just the ones in a single database, try this:

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS WHERE Db = 'databasename';

Alternative:

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES

My preference is for something that:

  1. Lists both functions and procedures,
  2. Lets me know which are which,
  3. Gives the procedures' names and types and nothing else,
  4. Filters results by the current database, not the current definer
  5. Sorts the result

Stitching together from other answers in this thread, I end up with

select 
  name, type 
from 
  mysql.proc 
where 
  db = database() 
order by 
  type, name;

... which ends you up with results that look like this:

mysql> select name, type from mysql.proc where db = database() order by type, name;
+------------------------------+-----------+
| name                         | type      |
+------------------------------+-----------+
| get_oldest_to_scan           | FUNCTION  |
| get_language_prevalence      | PROCEDURE |
| get_top_repos_by_user        | PROCEDURE |
| get_user_language_prevalence | PROCEDURE |
+------------------------------+-----------+

Shows all the stored procedures:

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS;

Shows all the functions:

SHOW FUNCTION STATUS;

Shows the definition of the specified procedure:

SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE [PROC_NAME];

Shows you all the procedures of the given database:

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS WHERE Db = '[db_name]';

SELECT specific_name FROM `information_schema`.`ROUTINES` WHERE routine_schema='database_name'

A variation on Praveenkumar_V's post:

SELECT `name` FROM mysql.proc WHERE db = 'dbname' AND `type` = 'PROCEDURE';
SELECT `name` FROM mysql.proc WHERE db = 'dbname' AND `type` = 'FUNCTION';

..and this because I needed to save time after some housekeeping:

SELECT CONCAT(
     "GRANT EXECUTE ON PROCEDURE `"
    ,`name`
    ,"` TO username@'%'; -- "
    ,`comment`
)
FROM mysql.proc
WHERE db = 'dbname'
AND `type` = 'PROCEDURE';

SELECT CONCAT(
     "GRANT EXECUTE ON FUNCTION `"
    ,`name`
    ,"` TO username@'%'; -- "
    ,`comment`
)
FROM mysql.proc
WHERE db = 'dbname'
AND `type` = 'FUNCTION';

To show just yours:

SELECT
  db, type, specific_name, param_list, returns
FROM
  mysql.proc
WHERE
  definer LIKE
  CONCAT('%', CONCAT((SUBSTRING_INDEX((SELECT user()), '@', 1)), '%'));

If you want to list Store Procedure for Current Selected Database,

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS WHERE Db = DATABASE();

it will list Routines based on current selected Database

UPDATED to list out functions in your database

select * from information_schema.ROUTINES where ROUTINE_SCHEMA="YOUR DATABASE NAME" and ROUTINE_TYPE="FUNCTION";

to list out routines/store procedures in your database,

select * from information_schema.ROUTINES where ROUTINE_SCHEMA="YOUR DATABASE NAME" and ROUTINE_TYPE="PROCEDURE";

to list tables in your database,

select * from information_schema.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE="BASE TABLE" AND TABLE_SCHEMA="YOUR DATABASE NAME";

to list views in your database,

method 1:

select * from information_schema.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE="VIEW" AND TABLE_SCHEMA="YOUR DATABASE NAME";

method 2:

select * from information_schema.VIEWS WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA="YOUR DATABASE NAME";

As of MySQL 8.0, the mysql.procs table has been removed. Running any of the commands from answers here that use this table will yield you an error that says (quite logically):

Table 'mysql.proc' doesn't exist

Instead, to retrieve a list of only the names of procedures/functions, use:

SELECT specific_name FROM `information_schema`.`ROUTINES` WHERE routine_schema='<your_db_name>';

In my case, I edited it to show only the procedures and not the functions:

SELECT specific_name FROM `information_schema`.`ROUTINES` WHERE routine_schema='<your_db_name>' AND routine_type='PROCEDURE';

My favorite rendering of the procedures list of the current database: name, parameters list, comment

SELECT specific_name AS name, param_list AS params, `comment`
FROM mysql.proc
WHERE db = DATABASE()
AND type = 'PROCEDURE';

Add returns for functions:

SELECT specific_name AS name, param_list AS params, `returns`, `comment`
FROM mysql.proc
WHERE db = DATABASE()
AND type = 'FUNCTION';

List user's procedures and functions for all databases:

SELECT 
    `ROUTINE_SCHEMA` AS `database`
    ,`ROUTINE_TYPE` AS `type`
    ,`SPECIFIC_NAME` AS `name`
    ,`DTD_IDENTIFIER` AS `data_type`
FROM 
    `INFORMATION_SCHEMA`.`ROUTINES`
WHERE
  `definer` LIKE
  CONCAT('%', CONCAT((SUBSTRING_INDEX((SELECT user()), '@', 1)), '%'))
ORDER BY
    `database`
    ,`type`
    ,`name`
;

List user's procedures and functions for the database in use:

SELECT 
    `ROUTINE_SCHEMA` AS `database`
    ,`ROUTINE_TYPE` AS `type`
    ,`SPECIFIC_NAME` AS `name`
    ,`DTD_IDENTIFIER` AS `data_type`
FROM 
    `INFORMATION_SCHEMA`.`ROUTINES`
WHERE
  `definer` LIKE
  CONCAT('%', CONCAT((SUBSTRING_INDEX((SELECT user()), '@', 1)), '%'))
AND
   `ROUTINE_SCHEMA` = DATABASE()
ORDER BY
    `type`
    ,`name`
;

Use the following query for all the procedures:

select * from sysobjects 
where type='p'
order by crdate desc
