Book excerpt: This book teaches students to design programs that are easy to read, debug, modify and maintain, and to write well-designed, elementary to advanced structured COBOL programs in their entirety. It familiarizes students with programming tools such as pseudocode and hierarchy charts that make programming more structured. COBOL 85 has been fully integrated into the text, including new ANSI-approved features, and systems analysis and database design concepts such as data validation, error control procedures, file and report design, and screen layout are described in detail. In addition, the text now features a COBOL syntax reference guide that allows hands-on training at terminals and PCs.
