Including leading and trailing blanks and leading zeros z/OS TSO/E CLISTs SA32-0978-00 |
|
If you want leading and trailing blanks and leading zeros in a &LENGTH expression included in the assignment, enclose the expression in a &STR built-in function. Otherwise, the blanks and zeros are ignored. For example, suppose that you want to save the length of the variable &IFIELD
in a variable called &SLNGTH. The contents of &IFIELD are
0 472.20. Include &IFIELD in the &STR built-in function to
include the blanks and the leading zero as part of the assignment:
After the previous statement executes, &SLNGTH contains the value 8. |
