| abs |
(Number num) |
yoix.math |
| |
Returns the absolute value of
num.
The result has the same type as the argument, except when
num
is the most negative integer,
in which case the result is a double because there is no corresponding
positive integer.
| |
| Example: |
The program,
import yoix.math.*;
import yoix.stdio.*;
int m = MIN_INT + 1; // MIN_INT is in yoix.math
int n = MIN_INT;
printf("abs(m)=%O, abs(n)=%O\n", abs(m), abs(n));
prints
abs(m)=2147483647, abs(n)=2.147483648E9
on standard output.
Notice that
%O
uses a different format for the two results, because the first
number is an integer and the second is a double.
