Absolute Value in math terms?

It is the numeric magnitude of a quantity, it's "bigness", without regard to direction or sign.

It is the euclidean distance from zero to that quantity.

Absolute Value is notated by using vertical bars. For an example, the absolute value of x is |x|

|3| = 3

|-3| = 3

|4+3i| = 5
