numpy.fabs()

numpy.fabs(x[, out]) =

Compute the absolute values element-wise.

This function returns the absolute values (positive magnitude) of the data in x. Complex values are not handled, use absolute to find the absolute values of complex data.

Parameters:

Parameters:	x : array_like The array of numbers for which the absolute values are required. If `x` is a scalar, the result `y` will also be a scalar. out : ndarray, optional Array into which the output is placed. Its type is preserved and it must be of the right shape to hold the output. See doc.ufuncs.
Returns:	y : ndarray or scalar The absolute values of `x`, the returned values are always floats.

x : array_like

The array of numbers for which the absolute values are required. If x is a scalar, the result y will also be a scalar.

out : ndarray, optional

Array into which the output is placed. Its type is preserved and it must be of the right shape to hold the output. See doc.ufuncs.

Returns:

y : ndarray or scalar

The absolute values of x, the returned values are always floats.

Examples

>>> np.fabs(-1)
1.0
>>> np.fabs([-1.2, 1.2])
array([ 1.2,  1.2])
