| #### D.2.3.3 absValue Procedure from library `general.lib` (see general_lib). Usage: absValue(c); c int, number or poly Return: absValue(c); the absolute value of c Note: absValue(c)=c if c>=0; absValue=-c if c<=0. So the function can be applied to any type, for which comparison operators are defined. Example:
    LIB "general.lib";
    ring r1 = 0,x,dp;
    absValue(-2002);
    ==> 2002
    poly f=-4;
    absValue(f);
    ==> 4
