Consider the following: 77 A PIC 9(10) 77 B PIC 9(10) 77 C PIC 9(19) MULTIPLY AB BY..

Answer / prasanna

A and B are two different variables and there is no
variable declared as AB. Do COBOL has enough knowledge to
identify and multiply the vaiable A and the variable B,

Kindly correct me if I am wrong..
