int = Abs(nNumber)

This macro function takes an integer as parameter and returns the absolute value of nNumber. The absolute value of a number is the same number if that number is positive, or its negative if the number is negative.

Abs(20) // 20
Abs(-30) // 30
Abs(0) // 0

Note that the following is always true :

nNumber ≡ Sign(nNumber) * Abs(nNumber)
