#9 3/25 | Chapter 11
Chapter 12 | Practice with Validation (mini lab/assignment)
Let's work on #1 page 468 with a few modifications. Make a simple program that validates user entered data according to the chart and requirements listed in a - d. Instead of an error listing let's have it immediately respond to the user that the data is invalid. So it will ask the user one question at a time and immediately tell you if it's valid. See if you can make it so if the user doesn't put in leading zeros to any of the numeric fields that it does so for you. Copy it up to USR1:[DTUCKER.COBOL.SPRING2010.LABCH11] |
