is COBOL still worth learning ? without context , your question is meaningless. I know engineers that make 6 figures salaries maintaining COBOL systems. So it is worth for them and they dont care about hype. give some context. "Is C++ still worth learning for this or that kind of job or field?" is the question you should have asked. Now i would say most programming languages are still built on either C or C++, and a lot of them allow C or C++ extensions,even hipster's nodejs. You cant be an expert on these solutions/languages without knowing the lower level.
