Ruby Integer magnitude function with example

The magnitude() function in Ruby returns the absolute value of the integer. It is similar to the abs function and is an alias of it.

Syntax: (number).magnitude

Parameter: The function takes the integer whose magnitude is to be returned.

Return Value: The function returns the absolute value of the integer.

Example #1:

# Ruby program of Integer magnitude function

# Initializing the numbers
num1 = -21
num2 = 21
num3 = 0
num4 = -100

# Printing the magnitude   value of integers
puts (num1).magnitude
puts (num2).magnitude
puts (num3).magnitude
puts (num4).magnitude

Output:

21
21
0
100

Example #2:

# Ruby program of Integer magnitude function

# Initializing the numbers
num1 =29
num2 = -7
num3 = 90
num4 = -10


# Printing the magnitude value of integers
puts (num1).magnitude
puts (num2).magnitude
puts (num3).magnitude
puts (num4).magnitude

Output:

29
7
90
10
