When working with numbers in Python, you may come across situations where you need to calculate the absolute value of a number. The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of its sign. In Python, you can easily find the absolute value of a number using a built-in function. <\/p>\n

**To find the absolute value of a number in Python, you can use the abs() function. This function takes a single argument, which can be an integer, float, or any other numerical value, and returns its absolute value.**<\/p>\n

Here’s an example of how to use the abs() function in Python:<\/p>\n

“`python
\nnum = -5
\nabs_num = abs(num)
\nprint(abs_num)
\n“`<\/p>\n

In this example, the variable `num` stores the value `-5`, and we use the `abs()` function to find its absolute value, which is `5`. The result is then printed to the console.<\/p>\n
