As you've seen, COBOL is a language with a 50-year history. COBOL is more than just another programming language. COBOL is an integral component in the public and private infrastructures in nearly every country on the planet. There is scarcely a person alive today whose life hasn’t been affected by COBOL programs.
These programs perform the day-to-day operations of governments, banks, transportation systems, and manufacturing and distribution systems. Invisible but powerful, COBOL is the brick and mortar of our information systems.
If you’re interested in working with the large information systems at the core of business everywhere or in developing new business applications, you should know COBOL. The good news is that COBOL is very knowable, straightforward, and fun to write. The further good news is that COBOL is rich, challenging, and present in the most complex of systems. You won’t get bored.
