Through eight previous editions, the last word in COBOL Programming has been revised to meet the needs of the 21st century! Here are some of the changes the Sterns have made to keep you on the fast track to COBOL for the year 2000 and beyond: * a fully integrated explanation of the Year 2000 (Y2K) Problem and its remedies, why it occurred, and suggestions for making all COBOL code Y2K compliant. * An emphasis on COBOL 85 coding, while providing a limited discussion of the older COBOL 74 code, along with changes-both approved and proposed--in the forthcoming new standard. * Internet resources related to COBOL throughout the text. Net icons are used to reference specific sites on the Web. * More material on indexed and relative disk file processing, including the START statement, DYNAMIC access of files, ALTERNATE RECORD KEYS, and FILE STATUS codes. * More material on multiple-level tables and arrays. * In-depth discussions on intrinsic functions. * An emphasis on screen layouts and interactive programs. The ninth edition is packaged with: (1) a syntax reference guide and (2) a disk containing all programs illustrated in the text and the data sets for all Programming Assignments.

Rese�a del editor

COBOL is one of the traditional mainframe languages. Powerful PC compilers have become available which have widened the audience and applicability of the language. This text addresses the changing needs of COBOL programmers to understand, use, and maintain the vast amount of COBOL code in existence. It provides complete coverage of COBOL with an emphasis on COBOL 85. It also covers object-oriented programming which has recently been applied to the language. Included are special icons to reference the features of the COBOL standard and topics of significant interest to PC users. The update includes a revised disk and a chapter on the "Year 2000 Problem". This chapter provides a full account of this problem, how it arose, and its relevance to the COBOL programming language. It also discusses what must be done to fix the problem and other issues that could have a profound impact on information processing in the 21st century.
