Reseña del editor

The main reason for this book is the resurgence in the currency of the COBOL language because of the twin pressures of the Year 2000 problem and European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). A whole generation of retired and semi-retired COBOL programmers are coming out of the shadows to take on the challenge. In response to nearly unlimited demand, younger folk are also being crash-trained in this most venerable of programming languages. The idea behind this book is that: it is 'tight', covering just the essence of COBOL, using modern programming idioms, and giving a synopsis of the Year 2000 problem, along with the solutions which can be applied to it. If you're under pressure to learn COBOL quickly, then you'll be attracted to this book rather than a book of the 1,000 page variety! This Made Simple book will give you a modern, level-headed, accurate, short, jargon-free and sometimes humorous coverage of COBOL that is very useful to know and really not very difficult.
