Structured COBOL programming / Nancy Stern and Robert A. Stern. - 6th edition. - New York : John Wiley & Son, Inc., c1991 - xii, 263 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
THE BASICS; An Introduction to Structured Program Design in COBOL; The IDENTIFICATION and ENVIRONMENT DIVISIONs; The DATA DIVISION; Coding Complete COBOL Programs: The PROCEDURE DIVISION; DESIGINING STRUCTURED PROGRAMS; Designing and Debugging Batch and Interactive COBOL Programs; Moving Data, Printing Information, and Displaying Output Interactively; Computing in COBOL: The Arithmetic Verbs and Intrinsic Functions; Decision Making Using the IF and EVALUATE Statements; Iteration: Beyond the Basic PERFORM; WRITING HIGH-LEVEL COBOL PROGRAMS; Control Break Processing; Data Validation; Array Processing and Table Handling; FILE MAINTENANCE; Sequential File Processing; Sorting and Merging; Indexed and Relative File Processing; ADVANCED TOPICS; Improving Program Productivity Using the COPY, CALL, and Other Statements; The Report Writer Module; An Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming; Appendices; Index.
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.
