Why we need to use redefine clause when we can define the
variable seperately... what is actual need....

Answer Posted / kannan

The main use of redefines to reduce the memory allocation
for the temporary variables that is declared in WS section.
if two variables are declared in a program and if there is a
situation that the program wil use only one among that two
variables during execution depending on a condition then
redefines can be used. so that both the variable use the
same memory space and it reduces the unnecessary memory
allocation
