Differences

The following are some key differences between Golang and COBOL.

Characteristic	Golang	COBOL
Syntax	Golang has a C-like syntax with a focus on simplicity and readability.	COBOL has a verbose and English-like syntax.
Paradigm	Golang is a statically typed, compiled language that supports procedural, concurrent, and object-oriented programming paradigms.	COBOL is a statically typed, compiled language that primarily supports procedural programming.
Typing	Golang has static typing with type inference.	COBOL has static typing with explicit type declarations.
Performance	Golang is known for its high-performance and efficient execution.	COBOL is optimized for business applications and may not have the same level of performance as Golang.
Libraries and frameworks	Golang has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, but the selection is relatively smaller compared to some other languages.	COBOL has a limited selection of libraries and frameworks, primarily focused on business applications.
Community and support	Golang has a large and active community with good support from the official Go team.	COBOL has a smaller community compared to Golang, but there are still resources and support available.
Learning curve	Golang has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with C-like languages.	COBOL has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers without prior experience in COBOL or similar languages.
