Differences

The following are some key differences between JavaScript and COBOL.

Characteristic	JavaScript	COBOL
Syntax	JavaScript has a C-like syntax with curly braces and semicolons.	COBOL has a verbose and English-like syntax with a lot of keywords and punctuation.
Paradigm	JavaScript is a multi-paradigm language, supporting both object-oriented and functional programming.	COBOL is primarily a procedural programming language.
Typing	JavaScript is dynamically typed, meaning variable types are determined at runtime.	COBOL is statically typed, meaning variable types are determined at compile-time.
Performance	JavaScript is an interpreted language and generally has lower performance compared to compiled languages like COBOL.	COBOL is a compiled language and generally has better performance compared to interpreted languages like JavaScript.
Libraries and frameworks	JavaScript has a vast ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, such as React, Angular, and Node.js.	COBOL has a limited number of libraries and frameworks compared to JavaScript.
Community and support	JavaScript has a large and active community with extensive online resources and support.	COBOL has a smaller and less active community compared to JavaScript.
Learning curve	JavaScript has a relatively low learning curve, especially for beginners.	COBOL has a steeper learning curve, especially for those with no prior programming experience.
