// Abs returns the absolute value of x.

// Special cases are:
// Abs(±Inf) = +Inf
// Abs(NaN) = NaN
func Abs(x float64) float64 {
// TODO: once golang.org/issue/13095 is fixed, change this to:
// return Float64frombits(Float64bits(x) &^ (1 << 63))
// But for now, this generates better code and can also be inlined:
if x < 0 {
return -x
}
if x == 0 {
return 0 // return correctly abs(-0)
}
return x
