    What is RPG?

    RPG, short for Report Program Generator, is a programming language that has been used for several decades. It is mainly used on IBM iSeries (AS/400) systems. Despite its name, RPG can do more than just generate reports. It's a powerful tool for building complex business applications, processing data, and managing databases.

    Here's a breakdown of RPG:

    • History: RPG has changed a lot over the years. It started as a simpler language for creating reports but has become a powerful tool for developing business applications on IBM platforms.
    • Key Features: RPG is known for its fixed-format structure, where code follows a specific column-based layout. However, newer RPG versions have introduced free-format options, giving more coding flexibility. It has strong built-in support for database operations, making it very efficient for handling data-intensive tasks.
    • Advantages: RPG is known for its stability, reliability, and performance on IBM i systems. It's a good choice for businesses that rely heavily on these platforms and need a strong language for their main applications.
