Gawd, does one exist outside the Smithsonian? grin

Well, if you have a very fast processor and no need for speed or
the
power, java can be pressed into a functional use...

However, when you already have the syntax of C++, why tie your
hands
with java, a pseudo-language really... it steals C syntax to run
scripted and byte code...

Of course, if you don't understand the difference of a real
programming language which is compiled and linked--as opposed to
java,
it is a moot point...

Good luck running that cobol on any modern application servers like
Websphere or Weblogic.



Yep...I think he programs on a AS400 if memory serves me...

I took a course in COBOL in college and also C++. C++ was by far more
difficult to pick up. COBOL was just too wordy for me. I hated writing
term papers and that is kinda what in reminded me of.

Never took a course in cobol, but used to help students debug their code
at the computer center. Wordy is an understatement.

It seemed they needed about a page of code to get the title up.

At the time, I liked fortran. But it's been years since I had time to
write my own software.

Yes, in a pinch, we will except substitutes...

However, nothing like a true fool to pull it off with that special
"foolish flair."

But then look at ham radio, took up till now for CW to be dropped,
with the "religious fanatic following" screaming right up till the
last moment that CW would live forever.

Now they stand looking like "dumbkoffs" and worse...

Face it, the only "dumbkoffs" are those who are either too dumb or lazy to learn
the code.

Really, my gawd, maybe you are correct...
