Synopsis

For freshman/sophomore level introductory courses in computer programming, such as Programming and Design, Introduction to COBOL Programming, Introduction to Business Programming, and Introduction to Computer Science.

Light on technical lingo and free of extraneous details, this carefully crafted introductory text presents COBOL at a level new students will enjoy and readily understand, using a simplified, “learn-by-example” approach that stresses top-down design and modular structured programming. Placing a special emphasis on planning and developing the program logic, it offers complete programming examples that walk students through the problem analysis, logic design, program coding, testing, and debugging, and examines sequential and indexed file processing in an easy-to-follow, step-wise manner.
