Todd,
Todd,
You're comparing zero in exponential form to zero in exponential form.
You're not the first to get tripped up by this, believe me. Use == (exactly
equal) instead:
if (offset1 == offset2) then say “MATCH!” ;

Running z/OS 1.9.
Running this, I get a match.
/* rexx */
offset1 = “0000E0” ;
offset2 = “0000E8” ;
if (offset1 = offset2) then say “MATCH!” ;
else say “NO MATCH!”
What does it return on your system?
Thanks, Todd
