# SDL_fabsf

Compute the absolute value of `x`

## Header File

Defined in [<SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/main/include/SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h)

## Syntax

```c
float SDL_fabsf(float x);

```

## Function Parameters

|           |                                              |
| --------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **x**     | floating point value to use as the magnitude |

## Return Value

Returns the absolute value of `x`

## Remarks

Domain: `-INF <= x <= INF`

Range: `0 <= y <= INF`

This function operates on single-precision floating point values, use
[SDL_copysignf](SDL_copysignf) for double-precision floats.

## Version

This function is available since SDL 3.0.0.
