How to get absolute value of integer? abs command does not work, man pages exist
#1
I'm trying to get the absolute value of an integer on my LL 4.0 machine. I'd like to use it in the command line. I looked up the man pages for the abs command, and it comes up there. But when I try to use the abs command, it says:
Command 'abs' not found, did you mean...
Then it lists some other things.

I'm puzzled why abs comes up in man pages but it won't work on command-line.

Anyway, the problem is, I can't find how to actually get the absolute value of an integer.  Is there a different method I should use?
Using Linux Lite for everything now. I put it on my desktop and my laptop. Woohoo!
