    Use of IBM COBOL was so widespread that Capex Corporation, an independent software vendor, made a post-code generation phase object code optimizer for it. [3] The Capex Optimizer became a quite successful product. [4] Although the IBM COBOL Compiler Family web site [5] only mentions AIX, Linux, and z/OS, IBM still offers COBOL on z/VM and z/VSE.

    Martin provided a "dozen pages of COBOL, and then just a page or two of Mark IV, from Informatics." Rawlings offered the following single statement, performing a set-at-a-time operation... The development of the 4GL was influenced by several factors, with the hardware and operating system constraints having a large weight.

    No Failsafe I/O: AutoHotkey (global ErrorLevel must be explicitly checked), C, [47] COBOL, Eiffel (it actually depends on the library and it is not defined by the language), GLBasic (will generally cause program to crash), RPG, Lua (some functions do not warn or throw exceptions), and Perl.

    Now LINC is known as Unisys Enterprise Application Environment (EAE) and builds applications by generating executable code (Cobol)for Unisys ClearPath systems, Dorado and Libra (formerly Burroughs A-Series & Sperry OS1100 mainframes), Microsoft Windows, and various Unix and Linux platforms. It will also generate GUI front-end clients in

  8. Signed overpunch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_overpunch

    It is used in character data on IBM mainframes by languages such as COBOL, PL/I, and RPG. [1] Its purpose is to save a character that would otherwise be used by the sign digit. [2] The code is derived from the Hollerith Punched Card Code, where both a digit and a sign can be entered in the same card column. It is called an overpunch because the ...

  9. IDMS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDMS

    Records essentially follow the COBOL pattern, consisting of fields of different types: this allows complex internal structure such as repeating items and repeating groups. The most distinctive structuring concept in the Codasyl model is the set. Not to be confused with a mathematical set, a Codasyl set represents a one-to-many relationship ...
