COBOL (COmmon Business Oriented Language) is 'n hoëvlak programmeertaal wat die primêre besigheidsprogrammeertaal was op hoofraamrekenaars en minirekenaars.
Dis 'n vertaalde taal en een van die eerste hoëvlak programmeertale.
COBOL het ontwikkel uit FLOWMATIC, 'n taal ontwikkel in die 1950's deur Grace Hopper vir die UNIVAC I.
Alle COBOL programme is in 4 afdelings ("division") georganiseer, wat: IDENTIFICATION, ENVIRONMENT, DATA, & PROCEDURE genoem word. Elke afdeling kan dan verder verdeel word in onderafdelings wat "section" genoem word. Elke "section" kan paragrawe bevat.
'n Eenvoudige COBOL-program:
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. hello-world. PROCEDURE DIVISION. DISPLAY "Hallo wêreld!" .
