=======================================
Do you mean "Antilock Braking System" or "Adult Basic Skills"?
Absolute Value.
IIRC out of the box no. I know there are several scripting additions
that do it.
It's only a few instructions, so writing a script-based version
wouldn't much more overhead than a scripting addition-based version (I
would think).
on abs(x)
if x < 0 then return 0 - x
return x
end abs
Or return x * -1. I don't know which is faster or more accurate when
dealing with floats.
