This is for the person who wants to learn what COBOL is, what programming is, and how to use COBOL in typical business data processing applications. Assumes no previous background in programming. Hands-on programming begins in Chapter 1--each chapter is based on one or more example programs applicable to real-life business settings. Treatment is based on the concepts of structured programming--only a few logical control structures are used throughout the book. Emphasizes a clear program style for ease of reading and debugging. All programs have been tested and run, and computer output is displayed in each case.

"Ideal for readers with little programming and/or mathematical background, this practical introduction to Cobol programming uses a simplified, "learn-by-example" approach that stresses top-down design and modular structured programming and emphasizes the planning and development of the program logic throughout - with complete programming examples that walk users through the problem analysis, logic design, program coding, testing, and debugging." Introduces two or more realistic sample programs in each chapter which demonstrate application of the program development process to an actual programming situation "from start to finish" - covering everything from problem definition to input/output specifications, processing requirements, hierarchy charts, program flowcharts, pseudocode, and program code. Stresses the importance of using top-down logic design and modular structure programming to construct high-quality, easy-to-read programs. Dissects program code and explains "step-by-step" how the program statements work together to produce the desired output. Examines menu-driven programming, data validation, guidelines for creating efficient and effective menu systems, and sequential, relative and indexed files. Checkpoint exercises, chapter summaries, and programming projects are included." For electronic and computer technology professionals. .

A text for use in college courses on COBOL both in two-year and four- year schools. It teaches students who may or may not have previous programming experience how to design and write COBOL programs. This revised edition (sixth was 1991) highlights structured pseudocode as well as standard pseudocode as program planning tools. Includes a copy of The Wiley COBOL Syntax Reference Guide (for the text without the guide the ISBN is 0-471-59747-3). A compiler is separately available from the publisher.

Traditionally one of the most popular mainframe languages, COBOL is being used for a wider array of applications thanks to new technologies. While maintaining most of the content which has made it a standard reference in COBOL programming, the eighth edition of this book is revised to meet the changing needs of programmers working with this language. In addition to complete COBOL coverage, this new edition includes coverage of interactive programming, PC COBOL, and new applications such as object-oriented programming.

A structured approach to learning the Cobol computer language on a microcomputer, this book presents fundamental algorithms, stresses principles of good programming, and introduces debugging techniques. Also shows how the language is used to implement common data processing tasks such as file updating, table loading, and control break processing. Contains many examples and problems.
