COBOL is a programming language that has been in existence for 60 years. An acronym for "common business-oriented language," COBOL was developed through the efforts of the United States Department of Defense. It has been used over the years primarily for government, finance, administrative, and business applications. COBOL's primary programming paradigms have traditionally been procedural and imperative, but object-oriented capability was introduced in 2002. Over time, new programming languages have been introduced that have taken over a significant share of software development, but many legacy COBOL systems are still in operation today.
If you are studying computer science, you may already know that many COBOL programmers are aging out of the workforce. This provides an opportunity for younger students to learn the language and stand out among potential employers as a candidate who can support legacy systems. If you would like to learn COBOL, you might want to study alongside a knowledgeable guide. Varsity Tutors can help you by identifying a COBOL tutor who can meet your needs.
