# `abs` Function
|
|
|
|
`abs` returns the absolute value of the given number. In other words, if the
|
|
number is zero or positive then it is returned as-is, but if it is negative
|
|
then it is multiplied by -1 to make it positive before returning it.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
> abs(23)
|
|
23
|
|
> abs(0)
|
|
0
|
|
> abs(-12.4)
|
|
12.4
|
|
```
