Could anyone please suggest me what is the maximum length
of data that can be pass as input in
//sysin dd *
This was asked in interview.
TIA

Answer Posted / muttaiah

I have a doubt here,,
Generally sysin is retrieved through accept stmt from cobol
program.
each accept stmt can read one line of sysin data.

considering this a line can be max of 71 or 72 char's

so i think the length of sysin will be 71 or 72..
