Consider the following:
77 W-NUM PIC 9 VALUE 0
------
MOVE 1 TO W-NUM
PERFORM PARA-X UNTIL W-NUM > 9.
------
PARA-X
ADD 1 TO W-NUM
How many times PARA-X is executed ?
Answer Posted / mr.perfect
9 times.
Initially, W-Num value will be 1.
1>9, so para will be executed. - 1 time
2>9, so para will be executed. - 2 times
3>9, so para will be executed. - 3 times
4>9, so para will be executed. - 4 times
5>9, so para will be executed. - 5 times
6>9, so para will be executed. - 6 times
7>9, so para will be executed. - 7 times
8>9, so para will be executed. - 8 times
9>9, so para will be executed. - 9 times
10>9, this will go to 0 because , the PIC at WOrking
storage section is 9. so that 10 becomes 0
W-NNum = 0 . THe loop again start from 0> 9
this will execute Infinite loop.
