There are many. For a change I like LE 0,*+4 SQER 0,0 which produces, on z/OS, a 0E0-1D abend (square root exception). Not too many of those happen in a typical app. But I think we had a strong discussion of these "cute" abends some years ago. Just issue an appropriate user ABEND macro and be done with it, was the mainstream thinking.
