COBOL is one of the oldest programming languages. The history goes back to the 1950s. An easy start statment is for example COMPUTE Res1 ROUNDED, Res2 = ((3*9)+3)/5. This should work without END-COMPUTE.

COBOL programming has IDENTIFICATION DIVISION where in author name, date of creation of program are given. Then comes DATA DIVISION where in storage requirements in primary memory and secondary memory are defined separately in working-storage section and File-section. Finally we have PROCEDURE DIVISION where programmming logic is specified using COBAL constructs.

The START statement positions an indexed or relative file for subsequent sequential record retrieval. When the START statement is executed,the associated indexed or relative file must be open in either INPUT or I-O mode. The SORT statement sorts the table referenced by table-name and presents the sorted table in table-name either in the order determined by the ASCENDING or DESCENDING phrases,
