Answer / wairagade
Output = MAIN-PARA
See the Main-Para. the flow is like , it will display MAIN-
PARA text and then perform SECTION-A in which nothing is
coded, it will give control back to OS.
If PERFORM SECTION-A thru PARA-A2
Then
O/P
MAIN-PARA
SECTION A PARA A1
SECTION A PARA A2
Please correct me if I stated wrong
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 3 No |
The output is :
---------------
MAIN-PARA
SECTION A PARA A1
SECTION A PARA A2
Because, There is no THRU command in PERFORM statement. So
it will execute still it reaches the 'EXIT' command or it
will perform the full section or until the next section
reaches.
