Douglas, alternative 2 is correct. exponent=0 represents a NULL value (in which case no mantissa follows) exponent=1 represents a zero value (with delta coding, mantissa=35 is correct given that it is the first occurrence or the previous mantissa value is 0 (zero)) /Rolf > I have following decimal in a template: > > (decimal name="MDEntryPx" id="270" presence="optional") (exponent) > (/exponent) (mantissa) (delta /) (/mantissa) (/decimal) > > if MDEntryPx= 35 which of following encode is correct? > 1) exponent = 0 mantissa = 35 > 2) exponent = 1 mantissa = 35 (because MDEntryPx optional) [You can unsubscribe from this discussion group by sending a message to mailto:[email protected]] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Financial Information eXchange" group.
