COBOL fixed-point truncation
cobol-pic-probe, public repo
- Problem
- PICTURE-clause fixed-point truncation compounds below the totals-reconciliation threshold, so a standard audit passes.
- Built
- A probe over a synthetic, fixed-seed payroll corpus: exact-decimal replay of PICTURE-clause truncation with per-field loss attribution.
- Result
- $40,832.41 synthetic loss across 47,312 synthetic records. Repeated runs return identical results.
$ git clone https://github.com/mpuodziukas-labs/cobol-pic-probe && cd cobol-pic-probe && python3 probe.py - Limit
- Synthetic payroll data, not production records.
