NAME
fabs, fabsf, fabsl - absolute value function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double fabs(double x); float fabsf(float x); long double fabsl(long double x); DESCRIPTION
These functions shall compute the absolute value of their argument x,| x|. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the absolute value of x. If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned. If x is +-0, +0 shall be returned. If x is +-Inf, +Inf shall be returned. ERRORS
