math

When you generate a COBOL program, the math build descriptor option specifies whether to do arithmetic calculations based on CSP math, which is used in some generated COBOL programs that were written either with IBM® Cross System Product (CSP) or with VisualAge® Generator. You might choose CSP math if your EGL-generated program was originally written for CSP. Otherwise, accept the default, which is COBOL.

Values

COBOL (the default value)
Use COBOL truncation algorithms, which may provide faster performance, smaller load module size, and better accuracy.
CSPAE
Truncate intermediate arithmetic values to a number of significant digits. The number is equal to the number of significant digits for the memory area that holds the final result.
