I pass numeric parameters of many different sizes.

I am careful to define them the same way in the target of the passing as in
where they are coming from.  Now there are limits how large a numeric value
can be depending on the programming language.  RPG can be up to 30 digits
with up to 9 after the decimal place.

But watch out ... what you are passing is X positions.
For example, you could have something defined with different number decimal
positions but same length of positions in what is passed & you not get an
error condition.
