BUNPKn – Convert Packed Numbers Including Decimals

The BUNPKn process converts packed format numbers to standard decimal format. The number of digits to place after the decimal point is specified by the number n in the process name.

The number specified in the process name must be between one and nine.

Note: Packed numbers without decimals should be converted with process BUNPK.

BUNPKn works in two phases:

• The input number is first converted from packed to decimal format.
• The result is modified to contain the specified number of digits after the decimal point. The number of digits after the decimal point is specified in the process name, for example, process BUNPK2 specifies that two digits should be placed after the decimal point.
