There are 3 'A' modes:
A mode = Addressability Mode; refers to address memory on a Mainframe computer.
3 basic Modes: 24, 31, and 64
24 and 31 A modes are becoming obsolete; many newer programming languages, such as Java will have trouble in thier processing routines due to memory and issues.
64 A mode should be the mode of choice, because the mode can handle addressability and memory issue for newer generation proogramming languages.
