Answer / sravan

To count number of operations occured we use counters.
DCL I FIXED BIN(15); /* DECLARATION of counter */
DCL eof bit(1) initial ('1'b);
DCL 1 var_b,
2 inrec char(2);
read file(filename) into(var_b);
Do while(!eof);
put skip list('Hi');
i = i + 1;
read file(filename) into(var_b);
end;
