           int i;

      DESCRIPTION
           Abs returns the absolute value of its integer operand.

      BUGS
           In two's-complement representation, the absolute value of
           the negative integer with largest magnitude is undefined.
           Some implementations trap this error, but others simply
           ignore it.
