Javascript - Mathematical module of a value

Question

Is there a command (or symbol) that makes the mathematical module a value?

For example: var teste = |10|-|6|;

Answer 1

That syntax |n| does not exist in Javascript, at least for this purpose.

What you’d have to do is use Math.abs(). Examples:

var teste = Math.abs(10)-Math.abs(6); // 4
var teste = Math.abs(10-6); // 4
var teste = Math.abs(-10-6); // 16
var teste = Math.abs(-10-(-6)) // 4

Obs.: When involving mathematical operations between values, use Math.abs() for each value. For example:

Math.abs(10) - Math.abs(-6) is different from Math.abs(10-(-6)). The first returns 4 and the second 16.

More about Math.abs() on MDN.

Answer 2

From what I understand you want the module representation in a number. See Math.abs()

console.log(Math.abs(10));
console.log(Math.abs(-10));
