First thing, when write this code and compile will it
compile sucessfully. If it compiles sucessfuly then if run
JCL will it give SOC7 or not.

01 b pic 9(3)
Yes, you can move. Try just a move and display B. you will

But if you go for an operation (add, move to comp variable
etc) then you will hit SOC7
