| Nucleus 1 NUC 1,2 |
Contains the language elements necessary
for internal processing of data within the four basic divisions of a program
and the capability for defining and accessing tables. |
| Sequential I-O 2 SEQ
1,2 |
Provides access to file records by the established
sequence in which they were written to the file. |
| Relative I-O 1 REL
0,2 |
Provides access to records in either a random
or sequential manner. Each record is uniquely identified by an integer that
represents the record's logical position in the file. |
| Indexed I-O 1 INX 0,2 |
Provides access to records in either random
or sequential manner. Each record in an indexed file is uniquely identified
by a record key. |
| Inter-program Communication
1 IPC 1,2 |
Allows a COBOL program to communicate with
other programs through transfers of control and access to common data items. |
| Sort-Merge 1 SRT 0,1 |
Orders one or more files of records, or combines
two or more identically ordered files according to user-specified keys. |
| Source-Text
Manipulation 2 STM 0,2 |
Allows insertion of predefined COBOL text
into a program at compile time. |
| Report Writer 0 RPW
0,1 |
Provides semiautomatic production of printed
reports. |
| Communications 0 COM
0,2 |
Provides the ability to access, process,
and create messages or portions of messages; also allows communication through
a Message Control System with local and remote communication devices. |
| Debug 0 DEB 0,2 |
Allows you to specify statements and procedures
for debugging. |
| Intrinsic
Function 1 ITR 0,1 |
Provides the capability to reference a data
item whose value is derived automatically at the time of reference during
the execution of the object program. |
| Segmentation 0 SEG
0,2 |
Provides the overlaying at object time of
Procedure Division sections. |
