Hi James,
Thanks for the kind words. Thanks also to Jerry Adams for his
exceptionally kind words.
Does the %DECH() BIF do the same thing under the covers as EVAL(H)? I
would assume not, but I am curious if you know.
EVAL(H) tells RPG that you want to half-adjust the number when it's
assigned to the result (by "result", I mean the variable to the left of
the equal sign -- not the RPG "result field" which doesn't exist when
EVAL is used.)
%DECH tells RPG that you want to half-adjust the number when it's
assigned to an intermediate field. (One of those "under the covers"
fields I referred to in the previous message) At the same time, %DECH
also specifies the size of that result field. So with %DECH the
half-adjust can be done anywhere in the expression, not just as the
final step (with EVAL(H) it's always on the final step)
Is that what you're asking?
