for comp3 the caluclation of memory goes
for the datasize is even we go for formula n/2.
for the datasize is odd we go for formula n+1/2.
ex; s9(5) means 5 is odd 5+1/2=6/2=3
it takes 3 bytes of memory.
for comp s9(9) it takes 4 bytes of memory.
so here depending on the datasize we can say the
best.
so in above ex; we say comp3 is best because there is a
supression of memory i.e 3bytes compared to comp 4 bytes .

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
