      extended by org.apache.pig.piggybank.evaluation.math.ABS

public class ABS
extends EvalFunc<Double>

math.ABS implements a binding to the Java function Math.abs(double) for computing the absolute value of the argument. The returned value will be a double which is absolute value of the input.

Parameters:
value - numeric.
Return Value:
numeric absolute value of input
Return Schema:
abs_inputSchema
Example:
register math.jar;
A = load 'mydata' using PigStorage() as ( float1 );
B = foreach A generate float1, math.ABS(float1);
