argument-1

Must be an integer of the form YYYYDDD whose value is obtained from the calculation (YYYY * 1000) + DDD.

YYYY represents the year in the Gregorian calendar. It must be an integer greater than 1600, but not greater than 9999.
DDD represents the day of the year. It must be a positive integer less than 367, provided that it is valid for the year specified.

X >_Host_> Under OS/390 and VM, the INTDATE compiler option affects the
