I am sure that there are 6 or more section. I am saying that
because I got below question in Amdocs mainframe test
Which of the following sections are a part of data division:
1.)Local Storage section
2.)Report section
3.)Screen section
4.)All of these
the correct option was 4 all of these
So apart from W-S section, Linkage section and file section
there are 3 or more sections.
