Answer / prachi

DRPTY is in Hexadeciamal..So to convert the value in
deciaml we need to multiply value 1 with 16 and then will
add value 2 in it

Answer / srikanth

What is num1 and num2 here?

Answer / jiya

Possible values of num1 & num2 are 0-15. So possible values
of DPRTY range from 0 to 255.
Maximum possible number of EXEC statements in a job are also
255.
So, each job step can be assigned a dispatching priority.

Answer / dispatcher

Supervisor allocate for DPRTY in memory just 1 byte. It
means 255 different values at all. num1 and num2 is a half-
byte = 4 bit. 1 bit == 2 values, 4 bit == 16 values.
