Answer / muhammad abdul aleem
I doubt if 05 level number will work or not.
But if it works the here is the answer.
Add 40,x to x means X = 10 + 40 + 10 =60
then
x = 60*3 -40
x=180-40
= 140
Since X = 99 so value will be 40
Therefore, Value of X will be 40...

Answer / rama krishna
Answer is again 10.
Add 40 to x :
x + 40 : 10 + 40 = 50
X = 3*X - 40
3 * x = 50 * 3 = 150, but since x declared as PIC 99, 1
will be truncated from 150. so now the value of x would be
50. so 50 - 40 is again 10.

I agree with Ans #4. I also checked the same..Value of X
will be 40...

Answer / neelam
I agree with all of them who have answered 40.
It is a simple statement in cobol that
ADD A B TO C. (Means (A+B)+C moved in C)
Here,
ADD 40 X TO X ()
Value of X is 10
So, ADD 40 10 TO 10 (Gives 40+10+10 = 60)
Now, COMPUTE X = 3 * X - 40
Means X = 3 * 60 - 40 (Gives 180 - 40 = 140 )
Since PIC clause for X is 99, hence 140 can't be store in
variable X.
So answer is : 40

compiler wont support 05 level direct coding ..assuming
that its a 01 level .. ans is 40.

Answer / kumar l
ADD 40 X to X means : 40+X will add to X and result will
be stored in X - Result is 60
Compute X = 3 * X - 40 means : 3*60-40 = 140.
So X value is 140.

Answer / suputhru
I agree with Rama Krishna ans: 10
05 X PIC 99 VALUE 10.
ADD 40 X TO X. ----------- x=x+40 x=10+40 x=50
COMPUTE X = 3 * X - 40.------x=(3*50)-40 x=150-40 x=110 since x pic 99--
finally x=10

which generation language is cobol
I have two questions here. 1. How to read a flat file in reverse order? 2. How to read a VSAM KSDS file in reverse order? In both the cases we donot know the total number of records.
which of the following can be used as a check protection symbol a.Z b.S c.* d.+
can we use 77 level no for Redefines?if we use give an example?
How many bytes will be allocated for the following record description entries? 01 REC-A. 05 A PIC S9(4). 05 B PIC XXXBXXX. 05 C PIC ____9.99. 05 D PIC S9(5) COMP-3. 05 E PIC 9(3) COMP.

If we put three reads in COBOL in the same para one after the other, to read a PS file,will it read the same record thrice or it will read three records sequentially? For example : Input File 01 02 03 Para 900 Read infile Display Infile rec Read infile Display infile rec Read infile Display infile rec. What will be the output?
What happens when we move a comp-3 field to an edited (say z (9). Zz-)?
Explain how will you differentiate between an internal and an external sort, the pros and cons, internal sort syntax etc
how to display date in reverse order if the pic clause of the is numeric suppose date is 09032010 ==> need to print in 20100309 (pic clause is numeric)
How can we find out wether to declare the data items like Integer, Char,Comp? If comp types how can we decide wether it is Comp and Comp3.How it is? Please Explain... Cheers.
