Describes how to use the fabs () method in Python.

This article describes how to use the fabs () method in Python. It is the basic knowledge in getting started with Python. If you need it, you can refer to the fabs () method to return the absolute value of x.
Syntax

The syntax of the fabs () method is as follows:

Import mathmath. fabs (x)

Note: This function cannot be directly accessed. Therefore, we need to import the math module and then use the static object of math to call this function.
Parameters

• X -- this is a value.

Return Value

This method returns the absolute value of x.
Example

The following example shows how to use the fabs () method.

#! /Usr/bin/pythonimport math # This will import math moduleprint "math. fabs (-45.17): ", math. fabs (-45.17) print "math. fabs (100.12): ", math. fabs (100.12) print "math. fabs (100.72): ", math. fabs (100.72) print "math. fabs (119L): ", math. fabs (119L) print "math. fabs (math. pi): ", math. fabs (math. pi)

When we run the above program, it will produce the following results:

Math. fabs (-45.17): 45.17math.fabs (100.12): 100.12math.fabs (100.72): 100.72math.fabs (119L): 119.0math.fabs (math. pi): 3.14159265359
