Question { T systems, 28611 }

What will happen if we move SPACES to numeric field and
ZEROES to alphabetic field?

Answer

spaces to umeric field will give data exp error soc7

bocz we cant move the spaces to numeric field

Zeroes to alphabetic we cant bcoz zeroes is numeric we cant
move into the alphabetic if we move it will give soc7

But using redefines we can moves num-alpa, alpa -num

Question { L&T, 8811 }

01 ws-p pic 9(2).
01 ws-q pic 9(2) value 01.
01 ws-r pic 9(2) value 99.

p.d.

compute p = q + r
what will be result of p ans(00) but my question is that

how i got 10 on the place of 00.
(truncation will ocuure on right side not left).

please tell me ?

Answer

simple always remember that for numeric it's Left
Justification ie TAKE FROM LEFT PLACE FIRST IN LEFT

SO P=100 but as per you it shd be 00 but it will be 10

1 IS FROM LEFT SIDE MOST THEN 00 so if we move as per above
then
p is pic9(02)

so 10 first 1 is moved from left to left then 0 is moved
but since pic 9(02) only to digits get moved
