Usually COBOL is a compiled, procedure language. There may be cobol interpreters somewhere, but usually it is compiled. It is one step above Assembly language. But, it is a big step up, as it is english like. example: notice it is rather verbose... IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. WHATEVER. AUTHOR. JIM SHORTS. * ETC.... DATA DIVISION. WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. 01 I-AM-AN-INTEGER PIC S9(04) USAGE COMP VALUE 0. PROCEDURE DIVISION. A000-MY-MAIN-PARAGRAPH. ADD 1 TO I-AM-AN-INTEGER. DISPLAY 'THE EXCITEMENT CONTINUES, THE INT CONTAINS ' I-AM-AN-INTEGER. STOP RUN.
