77 E PIC 9
77 F PIC 9V999
what are the contenta of D E nad F after the following

b.F=9.589 E=8 D=9
c.F=9.589 E=7 D=9
d.F=9.589 E=7 D=1

Answer Posted / ram g [mind tree]

c is the correct answer ...

the result will be like this
f = 9589
e = 7
d = 9

bcoz num truncation will happen in left.

for eg: if you try to store 123 in 01 x pic 9.
the value of x should 3 not 1.
