If we use GO BACK instead of STOP RUN in cobol?..

Answer / guest

we can use both goback and stop run in cobol when there is no
call statement to show termination of the program....
if we use go back it transfer control to the main program.
else we use stop run it releases the program from the main
memory give the control back to the operating system.
