    On multiple choice questions, pick the best available answer.

1.  The assembler writes its printed output (the program listing) to a 
    DD named SYSPRINT.

*** A.  True
    B.  False


2.  Which of these programs will save a load module as a member of a 
    PDS?

    A.  assembler
    B.  loader
*** C.  linkage editor
    D.  IEFBR14
    E.  All of the above


3.  Suppose my assembly-language program wants to read from a data set
    with DD name MYDATA and write to a data set with DD name MYREPORT.
    In which step do I need to have DD statements with DD names MYDATA
    and MYREPORT?  Pick the best answer.

    A.  assembler
    B.  loader
    C.  linkage editor
    D.  fetch
*** E.  More than one of the above


4.  COBOL is a case-sensitive language.

    A.  True
*** B.  False






5.  Suppose I have a variable in a COBOL program declared as:

       01  Q-Number            Pic 999V99.

    Now I execute this statement:

           Move -3456.8 to Q-Number.

    What will be in Q-Number?

*** A.  456.80
    B.  -345.68
    C.  345.68
    D.  -456.80
    E.  None of these


6.  Suppose I have a variable in a COBOL program declared as:

       01  Q-Name              Pic X(9)  Value ?COBOL FUN?.

    Now I execute this statement:

           Move ?CPP FUN? to Q-Name.

    What will be in Q-Name?

    A.  ?CPP FUNUN?
    B.  ?  CPP FUN?
    C.  ?COCPP FUN?
*** D.  ?CPP FUN  ? 
    E.  The Move statement is illegal as the fields are of different 
        lengths.
