COBOL
(redirected from COBOL language)

    Also found in: Medical, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

COBOL

High-level computer-programming language, designed in the late 1950s for commercial data-processing problems; it has become the major language in this field. COBOL features powerful facilities for file handling and business arithmetic. Program instructions written in this language make extensive use of words and look very much like English sentences. This makes COBOL one of the easiest languages to learn and understand.
