fabs() - Mathematical Function


Tutorials Cpp

Topic

How is Mathematical Function "fabs()" used in C++?
How to find the absolute value of a number ?



Explanation

fabs() is a Mathematical Function that returns the absolute value of the given argument.

Syntax to find the absolute value:
    float exp( float num);
    double exp( double num);
    long double exp( long double num);

Example:

   #include <stdio.h>
   #include <math.h>
   int main ()
     {
       printf ("The absolute value of 
                 2.5426 is %lf\n", fabs ( 2.5426) );
       printf ("The absolute value of 
                 -8.6 is %lf\n", fabs (-8.6) );
       return 0;
     }

Result:
   The absolute value of  2.5426 is 2.542600
   The absolute value of -8.6 is 8.600000

In the above example fabs() is used to find the absolute value of "2.542600" and "-8.6".
