output number to absolute number was created by Daniel M

Hello,
I'm needing to output numbers as absolute values. Is this only possible via .Net heater?
If so, please provide example in .net to assist me.
Thanks!

Hello Daniel,

You could format your number with the help of the String Format Heater as “normal” Decimal number and afterwards just replace the “-“ sign with an empty string using the String Replace Heater . On the other hand you could use the below listed C# Script for the .NET Script Heater to get the absolute number.

Please find attached a brief example.

C# .NET Script to retrieve absolute numbers

Code:

public object DoWork()
{
    if (InValues.Length != 1)
        throw new Exception("1 input parameter expected!");

    decimal d = (decimal)InValues[0].GetDecimal();

    return Math.Abs(d);
}

Best wishes
