COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) is a high-level programming language developed in 1959. Its main purpose was to create business, finance, and administrative systems. It is one of the oldest programming languages and is renowned for its readability and verbosity, making it closer to plain English than many modern languages. COBOL has continued to evolve and is still in use today, especially in industries like banking, insurance, and government where legacy systems remain operational. It is particularly known for its ability to handle large volumes of data and perform batch processing efficiently.
