Coursera 上的 "Learn Introductory Programming With COBOL" 课程,旨在教授 COBOL 语言的基础编程知识。尽管 COBOL 被认为不是一门“现代”语言,但其在许多领域仍被广泛使用。 本课程将循序渐进地引导学习者掌握编程的基本概念,包括: * **软件设置:** 学习如何配置必要的编程环境。 * **输出与输入:** 从经典的 "Hello World" 程序开始,学习如何输出信息,并掌握从终端读取数据的方法。 * **数据类型:** 深入了解 COBOL 中的各种数据类型。 * **程序结构:** 学习控制程序流程的关键结构,如条件语句 (if/then)、循环(loops)和表格/数组 (tables/arrays)。 * **模块化编程:** 理解如何将程序分解为更小的部分(Sections/Functions),这是编程中的核心概念。课程将演示 COBOL 如何利用 Linkage Sections 实现类似参数传递的功能。 * **COBOL 在大型机上的应用:** 介绍 COBOL 在主流大型机环境下的使用。 * **实例演示:** 通过一个 COBOL 报表程序的例子,展示 COBOL 的实际应用场景。 本课程不仅涵盖了入门级编程的所有核心内容,还增加了 COBOL 的特色和应用,对于有志于学习编程或对 COBOL 感兴趣的学习者来说,将是一门极具价值的课程。
This course teaches the basics of programming using the COBOL language. Introductory programming concepts can be shown in practically all programming languages but are rarely done in COBOL. Some people do not consider it a 'modern' language, however COBOL is still being used(I am still using it). The same things that are taught in Python or C in an introductory programming class exist in COBOL and I should know because I have been teaching introductory programming courses in multiple languages for almost twenty years. This class works through the normal progression of programming. First you have to set up the software. Then you write your first 'Hello World' program to show how to print output. After learning how to write out you have to learn how to read in data from the terminal. After being able to read and write, you get into more details and data types. Once you have a clear understanding of that, you go into the common programming structures: if/then, loops, and tables/arrays. Once you understand them, you have to start breaking up your program into sections/functions. This is probably the most important concept in all of beginning programming. COBOL does not have parameters and arguments like other programming languages but I show how COBOL does use the Linkage Sections to accomplish the same thing. The class will then show how COBOL is used on the mainframe, the most common home of COBOL coding. I also give an example of a COBOL report program, which is another very common use for a COBOL program. This will cover everything and introductory class plus some, plus you learn a language that is not commonly taught., Whether you have an interest in programming or just an interest in COBOL, I believe this will be a very informative class.
