Hi friends Both are correct and you can make use of them as
your reference.
Packed Decimal representation. Two digits are stored in
each byte. Last nibble is for
sign. (F for unsigned positive, C for signed positive and D
for signed negative)
Formula for Bytes: Integer ((n/2) + 1)) => n is number of
9s.

if you need more than 18 decimal digits, you must use COMP-
3 (or DISPLAY) as COMP variables cannot exceed 18 digits
while COMP-3 can be up to 31 digits.
