05 A PIC S9(4) -> 5 (BY CONSIDERING ONE SIGN BIT)

05 B PIC XXXBXXX -> 7 ( AS YOU ALL KNOWS ABOUT THIS)

05 C PIC ____9.99 -> 4 (SPACE AND 9V99=9(3))I THINK

05 D PIC S9(5) COMP-3 -> 3 ((5/2)+0.5)FOR ODD NUM WE HAVE
CONSIDER ONE 1/2 BYTE ONLY=0.5)

05 E PIC 9(3) COMP -> 2 (9(1) TO 9(4)=HALFWORD=2BYTES)

(9(5) TO 9(9)= WORD= 4 BYTES)
(9(10) TO 9(18)= FULLWORD=8BYTES)

Differentiate cobol and cobol-ii. (Most of our programs are written in cobolii, so, it is good to know, how, this is different from cobol)?
