Answer : 4. "all of the above"
Explanation :
A plotter is an output device that prints vector graphics on hard copy. Unlike printers, which are designed for raster graphics and text, plotters are specialized devices used to produce high-quality drawings, diagrams, and other vector-based illustrations. Plotters use pens or other drawing tools to create precise lines and shapes on paper, making them particularly useful for applications that require detailed and accurate graphical output, such as architectural and engineering designs.

Answer : 1. "Professional work"
Explanation :
COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language) is a high-level programming language primarily used for business, finance, and administrative systems within companies and governments. It is particularly useful for handling large-scale, data-centric applications in areas such as accounting, payroll, inventory management, and other business-related tasks. COBOL is known for its readability and ease of use, making it suitable for professionals working on applications that require extensive data processing and business logic. Despite being an older language, COBOL continues to be used in many legacy systems, especially in industries where stability and reliability are paramount.
