Floating point is stored in double words. Most of the time the nominal value is 0, which looks the same in hex and Floating Point. The FD notation seems weird to me. But it takes care of alignment. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Assembler List

DS D defines a floating point field. 4110 is a normalize floating point 1. Use FD for a fixed 64-bit integer. LTORG is irrelevant. Works the same as a literal or as a DC. Charles -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Assembler List [mailto:ASSEMBLER-LIST@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU]

Hey Joe, The 'D' (floating point constant type) and F (fixed point constant type) have been around forever. Somewhere between 95-2002 IBM added the type-extension subfield to the DC instruction. As of 2004, D became a valid type-extension, which clarifies characteristics of the type, so in

Re: SETRP retry for 64 code

Both my estate and setrp are below the bar however I didn't notice any difference in the expansion of the setrp macro when processing a setrp for amode 31 bit and for amode 64 bit Meaning when I had retaddr=(R4) in amode 31 the setrp code expanded to a ST R4 and the same when I had it

You can’t retry to rmode64 code. You have to have a stub code below the bar to retry to and have the stub enter your rmode64 code. Chuck Arney > On Jun 25, 2019, at 3:16 PM, Joseph Reichman wrote: > > Would any one know the parms on the SETRP when retrying 64 bit code It tred > > > > I
