6.1.7.4 Explicit Scope Terminators

An EXPLICIT SCOPE TERMINATOR marks the end of certain Procedure Division statements. A conditional statement that is delimited by its explicit scope terminator is considered an imperative statement and must follow the rules for imperative statements.

The following are explicit scope terminators:


     END-ADD             END-READ
     END-CALL            END-RETURN
     END-COMPUTE         END-REWRITE
     END-DELETE          END-SEARCH
     END-DIVIDE          END-START
     END-EVALUATE        END-STRING
     END-IF              END-SUBTRACT
 X   END-INVOKE          END-UNSTRING
     END-MULTIPLY        END-WRITE
     END-PERFORM
