Is COMPUTE better/faster than ADD/SUBTRACT/MULTIPLY/DIVIDE in COBOL. If so, then can anyone tell the reason why COMPUTE is better?

Thanks Kolusu..

From the link I found that it depends on the complexity of the situation where COMPUTE or ADD will be used and depending on that performance of the verbs will be decided.
