Question: 3

Requirement:

If the value of the numeric variable I is 1 it needs to be changed to 2 and vice versa. In all other cases it must remain unchanged. Which of the following solutions meets the requirement and does not require essential structural modifications when the requirement is changed to the following: If the value of the numeric variable I is 512 it needs to be changed to 731 and if the value is 814 it needs to be changed to 5. In all other cases it must be set to 111.

A. lF I = 1! 1 = 2

THEN I = 3 - I;

B. DCL ONETWO(2) BIN FIXED(15) INIT(2,1);

IF I = 1! I = 2

THEN I = ONETWO(I);

C. SELECT (I);

WHEN(1) I = 2;

WHEN(2) I = 1;

Question: 8

Prerequisite:

A sorted input dataset with record length 100 contains at least one record for each of the values ‘1’, ‘2’, ‘3’ in the first byte. The applied sort criteria is 1,100,ch,a.

Requirements:

  1. All records with ‘1’ in the first byte must be ignored.
  2. All records with ‘2’ in the first byte must be written to the output dataset.
  3. If there is a ‘3’ in the first byte, the read iteration must be left.
  4. The program must not abend or loop infinitely.

If the code below does not fulfill the specifications provided above, which of the following is the most likely reason?

DCL DDIN FILE RECORD INPUT;

DCL DDOUT FILE RECORD OUTPUT;

DCL 1 INSTRUC,

3 A CHAR(1),

3 * CHAR(99);

DCL EOF_IN BIT(1) INIT(’0’B);

DCL (Z1,Z2,Z3,ZO) BIN FIXED(31) INIT(0);

ON ENDFILE(DDIN) EOF_IN = ‘1’B;

READ FILE(DDIN) INTO (INSTRUC);

LOOP: DO WHILE (^EOF_IN);

SELECT(INSTRUC.A);

WHEN(’1’) DO;

Z1 +-= Z1;

ITERATE LOOP;

END;

WHEN(‘3’) DO;

Z3 = Z3+1;

LEAVE LOOP;

END;

WHEN(‘2’) DO;

Z2 = Z2+1;

WRITE FILE(DDOUT) FROM(INSTRUC);

END;

OTHER DO;

ZO = ZO+1;

PUT SKIP LIST(INSTRUC.A);

END;

END;/*select*/

READ FILE(DDIN) INTO(INSTRUC);

END ;/*loop*/

A. The code does not fulfill the requirement because the program will loop infinitely. A. The code does not fulfill the requirement because the program will loop infinitely.

B. The code does not fulfill the requirement because the last record with ‘2’ in the first byte will be written twice to the output dataset.C. The code does not fulfill the requirement because the last record with ‘2’ in the first byte will be written twice to the output dataset.

C. The code does not fulfill the requirement because not all records with ‘2’ in the first byte will be written to the output dataset.C. The code does not fulfill the requirement because not all records with ‘2’ in the first byte will be written to the output dataset.

D. The code fulfills the requirement.D. The code fulfills the requirement.

Answer: A

Question: 9

Given the following declarations, which code is likely to perform best and correctly initialize structure 3?

DCL 1 S UNALIGNED, 2 A CHAR(3), 2 B BIN FIXED(31), 2 C DEC FIXED(5); DCL 1 T UNALIGNED LIKE S; T = ";

A. S = ";

B. S = T,BY NAME;

C. CALL PLIFILL(ADDR(S),’‘,STG(S));

D. CALL PLIMOVE(ADDR(S),ADDR(T),STG(S));

Answer: D
