1. You can REDEFINE a Variable from one PICTURE class to
another PICTURE class by using the same memory
location.
2. By REDEFINES we can INITIALISE the variable in
WORKING-STORAGE Section itself.
3. We can REDEFINE a Single Variable into so many sub
variables. (This facility is very useful in solving Y2000
