The abs()
function returns the absolute value of the number it takes as an argument—that is, that number’s distance from 0
on an imagined number line. For instance, 3
and -3
both have the same absolute value: 3
. The abs()
function always returns a positive value, and unlike max()
and min()
, it only takes a single number.
Instructions
