COBOL is still used, but tend to disappear, you can like it or not. I
COBOL programs are in use globally in governmental and military agencies and in
commercial enterprises, and are running on operating systems such as IBM's z/OS
and z/VSE, the POSIX families (Unix/Linux etc.), and Microsoft's Windows as
well as ICL's VME operating system and Unisys' OS 2200. In 1997, the Gartner
Group reported that 80% of the world's business ran on COBOL with over 200
billion lines of code in existence and with an estimated 5 billion lines of new
code annually
