Assignment Help:

SEQUENTIAL FILE CREATION AND REWRITING:

We have to write a program to create a student file with just two fields: sno i.e. Student Number and same i.e. Student Name. Add a few records. Modify the record with sno=1 assno=10. You can use sequential file I-O.

 identification division.

  program- id. s2.

  environment division.

  input-output section.

  file-control.

    select stu- file assign to disk

    organization is line sequential

    access mode is sequential

    file status is fs.

  data division.

  file section.

  fd stu- file

    label records are standard

    value of file- id is 'stu.dat'

                data record is stu-rec.

01  stu-rec.

    02  sno   pic 9(2).

    02  sname pic x(10).

  working-storage section.

01   ans pic x value space.

01   fs  pic x(2) value spaces.

01   eof pic x value space.

procedure division.

p-1.

  display(1 1) erase.

  open extend stu- file.

  perform g-w-para until ans = "n".

  close stu-file.

  open i-o stu-file.

       if fs = '30'

      open output stu-file

      close stu-file

      open i-o stu-file.

  read stu- file at end move 'y' to eof.

  perform rewrite-para until eof = 'y'.

  close stu-file.

  stop run.

g-w-para.

  display(1 1) erase.

  display(3 5) "Sno : ".

  accept sno.

  display(5 5) "Sname : ".

  accept sname.

  write stu-rec.

  display(10 5) "Continue [ y/ n ] : ".

  accept ans.

rewrite-para.

  if sno="01"

    move 10 to sno

    rewrite stu-rec.

  read stu- file at end move 'y' to eof.
