ABAP does not support Complex arithematic operations

for example c = (A + B) * (C + D)). Like C language

you have to write the above statement in two different steps

And

As per your expression if you want to divide two intergers then use DIV operator a special operator of ABAP

if you want to divide two different types of numbers other than intergers then you can use /

Hello Ram,

Yes it is correct. Please check the 'TYPE' you have declared the variables.

You can check this things by creating a sample program. Do not need to post for this.

Thanks,

Jayant

Hi,

Ya above is correct.

Also you need not specify brackets for above condition:

c = a / b.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Raj,

Have a look of the below site.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fc/eb32e2358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm

DATA: pack TYPE p DECIMALS 4,

n TYPE f VALUE '+5.2',

m TYPE f VALUE '+1.1'.

pack = n / m.

WRITE pack.

pack = n DIV m.

WRITE / pack.

pack = n MOD m.

WRITE / pack.

Cheers!!
