BOOTSTRAP (klibm) functions
LIBRARY ROUTINE
kfabs - compute the absolute value of the argument.
LIBRARY CALL
double kfabs(double x)
INPUT
- x - number to take the absolute value of.
OUTPUT
none
RETURN VALUE
the double precision absolute value of the
input argument.
DESCRIPTION
The kfabs function computes the absolute
value of the double precision input argument.
This is provided in all POSIX and X/OPEN
compliant C math libraries. Currently
kfabs is simply a macro to fabs because
Khoros does not run on any machine whose
math library does not include this function.
If Khoros is ported to a machine without this
function then a replacement will be written.
