# 
#  Overview

In Ruby, we use the **`abs` method** to get the absolute value of a float.

##
## Syntax


# 
#  Return value

We call `float_value.abs` to return the absolute value of `float_value`.

##
## Example

# create float values
f1 = 23.3435
f2 = -2.8945
f3 = 3/4.7
f4 = -23.3435

# get absolute values
puts f1.abs
puts f2.abs
puts f3.abs
puts f4.abs

# 
## Explanation

* **Lines 2–5:** We create float values `f1`, `f2`, `f3`, and `f4`.

* **Lines 8–11:** We use the `abs` method to get the absolute values of the float values. Next, we print it to the console.
