TheENCODING
property is expressed as a three-character string with the following syntax:{N|R}{N|R}{N|R|3}
In this string:N
denotes normalR
denotes reversed3
denotes z/OS- The first character represents integer encoding
- The second character represents decimal encoding
- The third character represents floating-point encoding
