<h1 class="topictitle1">FLTPCN (Floating-Point Precision) keyword for physical and logical
files </h1>
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to specify the precision of a floating-point
field.</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">The format of the keyword is: <pre>FLTPCN(*SINGLE | *DOUBLE)</pre>
where
*SINGLE is single precision and *DOUBLE is double precision. This keyword
is valid for floating-point fields only (data type F).</div>
<p>If you do not
specify the FLTPCN keyword, the default is single precision. A single precision
field can be up to 9 digits; a double precision field can be up to 17 digits.
If you specify a field length greater than 9 (single precision) or 17 (double
precision), an error message is sent and the file is not created.</p>
