Answer / ld123q44
With a primary file the file is processed seqentially record
by record and programs automatically ends when all records
have been read. There can only one primary file in a program.
With full procedural files the programmer determines which
record or a block of records to be read by way of the value
of the key field used. If a program has only full procedural
files, the programmer has to explicitly close the file.
