==Description needed==
Hi. You need to describe that part of "file processing as known from PL/I or COBOL" that is required for the task without reference to the examples. Assume readers don't know what you mean and have to be told in the task description. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 00:09, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
: Thanks. You never know what others don't. Description expanded. --[[User:Walterpachl|Walterpachl]] ([[User talk:Walterpachl|talk]]) 06:27, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

That 'expanded description' is still no valid specification of the task.<br>
It needs to be more detailed then "The structure is usually described by declarations" in some file by language X.
I guess it could read somewhat like <br>
* Field 1 is a string of length 5.
* Field 2 is a string of length 4.
* Field 3 is a number of length 4, represented as text.
* Field 4 is a string of length 1, containing "+" or "-".
* Field 5 is a string of variable length.
The task is to copy fields 1 and 2 from each record. <br>...
