Definition

absolute value of $a$ , + modulus of $a$ , + magnitude of $a$

valeur absolue de $a$

The notation $abs a$ is also used.

The symbol $| |$ is also used for cardinality of a set (see number of elements), modulus of a complex number (modulus, of complex number) and magnitude of a vector (see magnitude of vector).

La notation $abs a$ est aussi utilisée.

Le symbole $| |$ est aussi utilisé pour le cardinal d'un ensemble (voir number of elements), le module d'un nombre complexe (modulus, of complex number) et la norme d'un vecteur (voir magnitude of vector).

A mathematical concept as defined in ISO/IEC 80000 Part 2.
