Hi all,
Does anyone have a quick assembler routine to convert a hexadecimal
number represented in EBCDIC into the real hex number?
Phil.
Depends what you mean.
x'FACE' is a hexadecimal number, right? (= 64206 in decimal,
if an unsigned number).
c'FACE' is one way of representing it in EBCDIC
So you want to convert c'FACE' to x'FACE'?
Or are you talking zoned decimal, packed decimal,
or floating point numbers?
Give us some info on the parameters that bound your
problem.
Kind regards,
