Example:
In the example below, abs() function returns the absolute value (positive value) of the specified number.
print("abs(-2.0) = \(abs(-2.0))")
print("abs(-1.0) = \(abs(-1.0))")
print("abs(0.0) = \(abs(0.0))")
print("abs(1.0) = \(abs(1.0))")
print("abs(2.0) = \(abs(2.0))")
The output of the above code will be:
abs(-2.0) = 2.0 abs(-1.0) = 1.0 abs(0.0) = 0.0 abs(1.0) = 1.0 abs(2.0) = 2.0
