About this title

Synopsis:

A step-by-step introduction to the subject along with self-tests to reinforce learning and alert students to topics they may need to review. This edition focuses on how COBOL can be used as a "language of the 90's" and COBOL 85 features that make structured COBOL a language which can effectively compete with more recently developed third generation languages. End-of-chapter material includes a chapter summary, a key terms listing tied to the glossary at the end of the text, short-answer review questions, debugging assignment and programming assignments. Also available: "Getting Started with RM-COBOL" by James Janossy, (0-471-30672-x) "Getting Started with MicroFocus COBOL" by John Crawford, (0-471-02629-8).
