-
w
-
specifies the width of the output field.
-
d
-
specifies to multiply the number by 10d. This argument is optional.
Use S370FZDSw.d in other operating environments to write zoned decimal
separate
leading-sign data in the same format as on an IBM mainframe computer.
-
The S370FZDSw.d format
is similar to the S370FZDLw.d format except that the S370FZDSw.d format does not
embed the sign of the number in the zoned
output.
-
The S370FZDSw.d format is equivalent to the COBOL notation PIC
S9(n) DISPLAY SIGN LEADING SEPARATE, where the n value is the number of
digits.
y=put (x,s370fzds4.);
put y $hex8.;

The result is a hexadecimal representation of a binary
number in zoned decimal format on an IBM mainframe computer. Each two hexadecimal
digits correspond to one byte of binary data, and each byte corresponds to
one column of the output field. |
