wht is the use of evalute verb ? how do u declare recfm in cobol and jcl ?..

Answer / neo devan

Evaluate verb is one of conditional statement used in cobol.
It is used whenever there are many conditions to check, its
used instead of nested if statements.
The syntax : evaluate true
when name="Robert" display "Robert".
when name="Langdon" display "Langdon".
end evaluate.

evaluate fname also lname
when "Robert" also "Langdon"
display "Robert Langdon".
when "Leonardo" also "Da Vinci"
display "Leonardo Da Vinci".
end evaluate.
