I saw this post and I wonder if I have an associative array for calculate an operation; how abs would work in this case.

If I apply the one you suggested in earlier post,

can it be turned to;


count[$1]= ($4-$5)*(0.05);
if(count[$1]>=0){
count[$1]=count[$1];}
else
count[$1]=0-count[$1];
Code:
   count[$1]= ($4-$5)*(0.05)
   if(count[$1]<0) count[$1]=0-count[$1]
