Subscript is the occurance number in the arrary of element.
Fr e.g., an array has only one itme that repeats for 20
times, in order to refer to 10th itme in this array, you
can say ITEM(20). This '20' can be replaced by a WS
variable having value = 20.
Index: It is the displacement from the begining. if you
remember, when we use Index in a loop, then we do not code
Move 2 to WS-INDEX. We have to code. We need to set the
index to zero and then increament.
