* Fields of type i (integer) are mainly used for counting DATA: CUSTOMER_NUMBER TYPE I, LOOP_COUNTER TYPE I. * Integers have a fixed length of 4 bytes. * The initial value is zero, if it is not specified explicitly. DATA WORD_LENGTH TYPE I VALUE 17. * Packed numbers (type p) are a way to store numbers internally * in a compressed form. Therefore, they cover a wide range of possible * values can be used for all kinds of computations. DATA NUMBER_OF_MOSQUITOES TYPE P. * Decimal handling is supported for packed numbers DATA AIRBAG_PRICE TYPE P DECIMALS 2 VALUE '333.22'. WRITE / AIRBAG_PRICE. * Default length of type p fields is 8, and the maximum length is 16, * which can represent numbers of up to 31 digits plus the sign DATA: PACKED_NORMAL TYPE P, PACKED_16(16) TYPE P. * Floating point numbers (type f) occur in complex arithmetic * operations. Possible values range from 1E~-307 to 1E307. * The standard output length of fields of type f is 22. DATA AGE_OF_EARTH TYPE F VALUE '123E+8'. WRITE / AGE_OF_EARTH. * The values of floating point numbers can be represented in * different ways, but they are all equivalent: DATA: F1 TYPE F, F2 TYPE F, F3 TYPE F. F1 = 1. F2 = '-12.34567'. F3 = '-765E04'. O/p: F1=1.0000000000000000E+00 F2=-1.2345670000000000E+01 F3=-7.6500000000000000E+06
