Key differences between COBOL and Swift

Characteristic	COBOL	Swift
Syntax	COBOL uses a verbose and English-like syntax.	Swift uses a concise and modern syntax.
Paradigm	COBOL is primarily procedural and imperative.	Swift is a multi-paradigm language, supporting both procedural and object-oriented programming.
Typing	COBOL is statically typed.	Swift is statically typed with type inference.
Performance	COBOL is known for its efficiency and performance in handling large-scale business applications.	Swift is designed for performance and is known for its speed.
Libraries and frameworks	COBOL has a limited number of libraries and frameworks available.	Swift has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available, especially for iOS and macOS development.
Community and support	COBOL has a smaller and more specialized community with limited support.	Swift has a large and active community with extensive support from Apple and the developer community.
Learning curve	COBOL has a steep learning curve, especially for developers with no prior experience in mainframe programming.	Swift has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for developers familiar with modern programming languages.
