Hello All

can you pls share what does the following dump signify

F0F04040 404040F0 F0F04040 404040F0
404040F0 F0F04040 404040F0 F0F0F0F0

cause F0 hex = 240 decimal and 40 = 64 decimal.

help is appreciated for this kiddish question

In EBCDIC x'40' is a space, x'C1' = A, x'F0' is a 0, x'F1' = 1 that's just the way single byte EBCDIC characters are defined.

Hello,

Was there some reason to post this again as a new topic? You posted the same question yesterday(?). . .

Double posting is not permitted - it just adds clutter and confusion.
