Product Description

From the Author
This COBOL book is for the professional mainframe programmer
The intended reader of this book is a person who already knows how to write COBOL programs. This book is designed to help the reader write programs better.

This book does not address the basics of COBOL, the basics of programming or the language syntax. Rather, this book addresses the many features introduced into the language that allow for better design; better performance; better use of CICS, IMS and DB2; better documentation; and full use of Y2K features, many of which were just introduced in 1998. In fact, use of the Y2K features takes 2 full chapters.

Use of such techniques as GLOBAL and EXTERNAL data, nested programs, intrinsic functions, and other new features are also fully addressed. Also included is information on Callable Services from Language Environment (LE) to extend COBOL's capabilities.

Additionally, the book fully explains the many performance options that are available at both compile and run time to reduce resource usage and operational costs.

In summary, as the title states, the goal here is to use COBOL for power programming. Such issues as 'how to write a report' or 'how to do a sort' are considered topics the reader already knows.
