Ruby Float magnitude() method with example

Float magnitude() is a float class method which works on float values and converts them to the absolute form.

Syntax: float.magnitude()

Parameter: float value which is to be converted to absolute value

Return: absolute value of the passed float value

Example #1:

# Ruby program for magnitude() method

# Initializing value
a = -56.23333333
b = -10000.0
c = -(22 + 7.1)

# Printing result
puts "magnitude value of a : #{a.magnitude}\n\n"
puts "magnitude value of b : #{b.magnitude}\n\n"
puts "magnitude value of c : #{c.magnitude}\n\n"

Output :

magnitude value of a : 56.23333333

magnitude value of b : 10000.0

magnitude value of c : 29.1

Example #2:

# Ruby program for magnitude() method

# Initializing value
a = -100.7 - 10.4
b = -100 * 2000.0
c = -(22 + 7.1) * 4

# Printing result
puts "magnitude value of a : #{a.magnitude}\n\n"
puts "magnitude value of b : #{b.magnitude}\n\n"
puts "magnitude value of c : #{c.magnitude}\n\n"

Output :

magnitude value of a : 111.10000000000001

magnitude value of b : 200000.0

magnitude value of c : 116.4
