Reads unsigned zoned decimal data in IBM mainframe
format.
-
w
-
specifies the width of the input field.
-
d
-
specifies the power of 10 by which to divide
the value. This argument is optional.
Use S370FZDUw.d on other operating environments to read unsigned zoned
decimal
data from IBM mainframe files.
-
The S370FZDUw.d informat is similar to the
S370FZDw.d informat except that the S370FZDUw.d informat rejects all sign digits
except F.
-
The S370FZDUw.d informat is equivalent to the COBOL notation PIC
9(n) DISPLAY, where the n value
is the number of digits.

The data line contains a hexadecimal representation
of a binary number that is stored in zoned decimal format on an IBM mainframe
operating environment. Each two hexadecimal characters correspond to one byte
of binary data, and each byte corresponds to one column of the input field. |
