Returns the converted value in BCD format |
Validity |
Rule, Task |
Note |
Since the output value is encoded in 4 bytes, the field of variability of the output value is: 0-:-99999999 always positive |
The function operates as follows:
•The input real-type expression is converted to an integer quantity
•The absolute value of the integer quantity is executed
•If the value is greater than 99999999, it is restricted to 99999999
•The resulting value is converted to BCD
