"integer" "absolute" Operation

This section describes 'integer' 'absolute' operation

The "integer" "absolute" operation is provided through the integer.absolute() function, which has the following syntax:

integer.absolute(a)

Parameters:
   a - An "integer" data object
   
Return: 
   Returns a new "integer" data object representing 
   "a" with its sign removed.

The "integer" "absolute" operation can be expressed in the "| x |" operator format:

May be other aliases should be supported too:
