RIO
le.
Relative
I/O
(RIO)
is
a
random
access
metho d
that
p ermits
individual
le
records
to
b e
deactiv
ated.
These
inactive
records
retain
their
relativ e
p osition
in
the
le.
RIO
les
are
in
tended
for
use
primarily
b
y
COBOL
programs;
ho
w
ev
er,
y
ou
can
access
these
les
b
y
programs
written
in
an
y
language.
Y
ou
can
access
RIO
les
in
t
w
o
w
a
ys:
RIO
access
and
non-RIO
access.
RIO
access
ignores
the
inactive
records
when
the
le
is
read
sequen
tially
using
the
FREAD
in
trinsic.
These
records
are
transparent;
ho
w
ev
er,
they
can
b e
read
b
y
random
access
using
FREADDIR .
They
can
b e
o
v
erwritten
serially
and
randomly
using
FWRITE ,
FWRITEDIR ,
or
FUPDATE .
With
RIO
access,
the
in

structure
of

is
transparent.
Circular

is
a
wrap-around
structure
that

As
records
are
written
to
a
circular
le,
they
are
app ended
to
the
tail
of
the
le;
when
the
le
is
lled,
the
next
record
added
causes
the
blo
c
k
at
the
head
of
the

to
b e
deleted
and
all
other

to
b e
logically
shifted

Circular

are
particularly
useful
as
