Hi Praveen
Please see the various data types of variables and the results they generated below:
Data : var1 type char18 value '111.80 ', "space at the last
       var2 type c value '5',
       var3 type char20.
var3 = var1 + var2.
write : var3.
Result:
Var3 = 116.8
Data : var1 type char18 value '111.80 ', "space at the last
       var2 type i value '5',
       var3 type char20.
var3 = var1 + var2.
write : var3.
Result:
Var3 = 116.8
Data : var1 type char18 value '111.80 ', "space at the last
       var2 type i value '5',
       var3 type i.
var3 = var1 + var2.
write : var3.
Result:
Var3 = 117
Data : var1 type char18 value '111.80 ',
       var2 type c value '5',
       var3 type i.
var3 = var1 + var2.
write : var3.
Result:
Var3 = 117
It works fine even when there is a space in the end.
Be specific on what type of calculation you perform for more clear solution.
