Answer / vaneeshkhurana
Basically we can create a structure where first fetch then
update the fetch 2 times and update once again fetch 2 times
and update once again fetch 2 times and update once... and
keep on fetching 2 times and updating it once till table
code 100 comes.
This will update only the odd rows.

It can be achieved using the scroll able cursor along with the Relative option while updating the queue.

The first answer is correct. It has a logic to select only
ODD rows(look at the two fetch statements).
Another logic to select only ODD rows.
SELECT SAL FROM EMP WHERE MOD(SAL,2)=1

Answer / krishna
Declare:
EXEC SQL
DECLARE CURSOR C1 FOR SELECT SAL FROM EMP FOR
UPDATE SAL
END-EXEC.
OPEN:
OPEN C1
FETCH:
PERFORM UNTILL SQLCODE=100
FETCH C1 INTO :SAL
UPDATE EMP SET SAL=9000 WHERE CURRENT OF C1
FETCH C1 INTO :SAL
END-PERFORM
