Hello all,

How do I convert a negative float to a positive float?

Cheers,

* -1.0 ? Or possibly fabs() depending upon what it is you are actually trying to do.

Why not just use the unary - operator instead? Multiplying by -1 in programming is an artifact of mathematics in my eyes.

I am searching and trying to do this for nearly 5 hours and your post has made me do it. Thank you a lot =)
