What are the different rules for performing sort operation?
Answer / Deep Ranjan Tiwari
"The rules for sorting data in COBOL include:
1. Data must be numeric or alphabetic.
2. If the data is numeric, it can be sorted in either ascending or descending order. If it's alphabetic, it can only be sorted in ascending order.
3. Each record to be sorted must contain the same fields in the same order."
