Key differences between Dart and COBOL

CharacteristicDartCOBOL
SyntaxDart has a C-style syntax with curly braces and semicolons.COBOL has a verbose and English-like syntax with a lot of keywords and punctuation.
ParadigmDart supports both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms.COBOL is primarily a procedural programming language.
TypingDart is a statically typed language with type inference.COBOL is a statically typed language with explicit type declarations.
PerformanceDart is designed to be fast and efficient, with a just-in-time (JIT) compiler and an ahead-of-time (AOT) compiler.COBOL is not known for its performance and is often used for legacy systems.
Libraries and frameworksDart has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including Flutter for building cross-platform mobile apps.COBOL has limited libraries and frameworks compared to modern languages.
Community and supportDart has an active and growing community with good support from Google.COBOL has a smaller and declining community with limited support.
Learning curveDart has a relatively moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with C-style languages.COBOL has a steep learning curve, especially for developers without prior experience in mainframe programming.
