Dynamic Call is always preferable, irrespective of the no
of Sub programs,but it all depends on the installation.

Answer / shiva

in dynamic call the subprogram load modules are linked
during execution..so it terms of processing it is slow
compared to satic...

but no need to compile main pgm every time when subprogm
is modified...it is one bst advantage over static call....

hence dynamic call is pereferable....

Answer / sandhya

static call is preferable with respect to fast execution...

Answer / harsha

intially we follow main program then all depends on the
control or flow of the main program itself for eg;
In main prog intially we call a subprog1 and after the
execution of subprog1 is over then control is back to the
main prog or to be simple the program which called...to bo
simple wherever the control gets it's start it's(control)
is finally returned to that point in the program
