usage of BINARY for arithmetic operations.
Posted: Thu Jan 21, 2010 8:39 pm
In my code I have declared loop counters as a packed decimal field
01 INDEX-FIELD.
03 P PIC S9(5) PACKED-DECIMAL VALUE 0.
Will it improve performance on a significant basis of the COBOL program in terms of CPU time etc., if i declare this field as BINARY?
