The ADD statement causes two or more numeric operands to be summed and the result to be stored.
Format 1:Add…To
Format 2:Add…Giving
Format 3:Add Corresponding
In Format 1, the values of the operands preceding the word TO are added together; that sum is then added to the current value of each data item referenced by identifier-2 storing the result immediately into that data item.
In Format 2, the values of the operands preceding the word GIVING are added together; that sum is then stored as the new value of each data item referenced by identifier-3.
In Formats 1 and 2, each identifier must refer to an elementary numeric item, except that in Format 2, each identifier following the word GIVING may refer to either an elementary numeric item or an elementary numeric edited item.
In Format 3, data items in identifier-1 are added to and stored in the corresponding data items in identifier-2.
In Format 3, each identifier must refer to a group item.
Each literal must be a numeric literal.
