// If the nonnumeric operand is a group item, the compiler treats the numeric operand as if it

// is equivalent to a group move.
// The compiler ignores the description of the numeric item (except for length) and, therefore,
// includes in its length any operational sign, whether carried as a separate character or as an
// overpunched character. Overpunched characters are never ASCII numeric digits. They are
// characters ranging from A to R, left brace ({), or right brace (}). Thus, the sign and the
// digits, stored as ASCII bytes, take part in the comparison, and zeros are not supplied for P
// characters in the PICTURE character-string.

// If the nonnumeric operand is an elementary item or a literal, the compiler treats the numeric
// operand as if it had been moved into an alphanumeric data item the same size as the numeric
// operand and then compared. This causes any operational sign, whether carried as a separate
// character or as an overpunched character, to be stripped from the numeric item so that it
// appears to be an unsigned quantity.
// In addition, if the PICTURE character-string of the numeric item contains trailing P
// characters, indicating that there are assumed integer positions that are not actually
// present, they are filled with zero digits. Thus, an item with a PICTURE character-string of
// S9999PPP is moved to a temporary location where it is described as 9999999. If its value is
// 432J (--4321), the value in the temporary location will be 4321000. The numeric digits take
// part in the comparison.
