Hello,
Post what you found in the manual that is not clear and your doubt about this.
Someone will be able to clarify. |

P This is used as a Numeric place holder.
It does not use any actual storage space; used to change precision, e.g. 99PPP will hold values in amounts of even 1,000 from zero to 99,000 without actually storing anything for the three lowest order positions; can also be used to represent positions after the decimal, e.g. PP9 will hold values in amounts in even thousandths, from 0 to .009 without actually storing anything for the two highest order positions.
Hope this clarifies your doubt. |
