The mnemonic name is associated with a system file or the console in the
SPECIAL-NAMES paragraph in the Environment Division. Each literal may
be any figurative constant except ALL.
DISPLA Y causes the contents of each operand to be written on the system file
or the console in the order listed.
If
a figurative constant is specified as
one of the operands, only a single occurrence of the figurative constant is
displayed.
When a DISPLAY statement contains more than one operand, the data com-
prising the first operand is stored as the first set of characters, the data
comprising the second operand as the second set of characters, and so on,
until the maximum output file and 127 characters for the console) is filled.
This operation continues until all information is displayed. Data comprising
an operand may extend into subsequent units.
If
the UPON option is not used, the data is displayed on the console.
