RE: What is an in-line perform ?

Inline perform executes set of statments without going to
any paragraph written seperately.Depending on
scenario.....for example

Move 0 to sum-of-digits.
Move 1 to counter.
perform until counter > 10
Add counter to sum-of-digits
Add 1 to counter
End-perform.

Here the perform won't perform beyond the para.The scop of the perform will be within the same para is called In-line perform.

1.In-line perform means Body of the perform will not go to other paragraph.
Ex-

---------
--------
END-PERFORM.
2. Above example we do not have any GoTo statement.
