Everything about Absolute value
Distance from zero to a number
In mathematics, the absolute value or modulus of a real number, denoted, is the (non-negative) magnitude of measured without regard to its sign. Namely, if is a positive number, and if is negative, and . For example, the absolute value of 3 is 3, and the absolute value of −3 is also 3. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero. Wikipedia →
