More about Absolute Value?

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. It is always a non-negative value. The absolute value of a real number "x" is denoted by |x|.

Here are a few key points about absolute value:

Notation:
- The absolute value of a number "x" is written as |x|.
Distance from Zero:
- For any real number "x," |x| is the distance of "x" from zero on the number line.
Non-Negative Result:
- The absolute value is always non-negative. Mathematically, |x| is greater than or equal to zero for any "x."
Examples:
- |5| = 5 (because 5 units away from zero)
- |-3| = 3 (because 3 units away from zero)
- |0| = 0 (zero is zero units away from itself)
In Mathematics:
- The absolute value function is often denoted as "abs(x)" or ABS(x) in programming languages like Salesforce.

In Salesforce syntax, the ABS function is used to calculate the absolute value of a number. For example, ABS(-12) would return 12, and ABS(12) would also return 12, as mentioned in your previous inquiry.
