GF reads and writes strings and numbers. It left justifies strings and right justifies numbers. Strings may be any value not exceeding the specified length. Numbers may include a decimal point at any position and may have an exponent.
The following program demonstrates this:
00010 open #1: "name=xxx,recl=80,replace",internal,outin,relative 00020 write #1,using 'form gf 10,c': 1234.56,"X" 00030 write #1,using 'form gf 10,c': "1234.56","X" 00040 write #1,using 'form gf 14,c': 123456e-20,"X"
This program produces a file with two records containingthe following, where "bbb" represents three blank spaces:
bbb1234.56X 1234.56bbbX bbb1.23456E-15X (the normalized form of the value)
