Description
arg
ByVal
numeric
The value from which the absolute value will be
computed.
Discussion
The absolute value function returns the magnitude of the passed value. It is primarily useful for signed
numeric types such as Single, Integer and Long. Unsigned parameter values will be returned
unchanged.
The type of the return value will be the same as the type of the parameter provided.
Example
Dim i as Integer, j as Integer
i = -45
j = Abs(i) ' result is 45
