The classic COBOL text updated to address the Year 2000 timebomb. This Sterns update addresses the most pressing issue of the day, the potential crippling of computer systems the moment we ring in the new millennium. This edition includes a revised disk, a full account of the problem, and an in-depth consideration of its relevance to COBOL. It also discusses other issues that could have a profound impact on information processing in the new century.

From the Publisher:

Traditionally one of the most popular mainframe languages, COBOL is being used for a wider array of applications thanks to new technologies. While maintaining most of the content which has made it a standard reference in COBOL programming, the eighth edition of this book is revised to meet the changing needs of programmers working with this language. In addition to complete COBOL coverage, this new edition includes coverage of interactive programming, PC COBOL, and new applications such as object-oriented programming.
