Exercise
Absolute value
Objetive
Write a Visual Basic (VB.Net) program to calculate (and display) the absolute value of a number x: if the number is positive, its absolute value is exactly the number x; if it's negative, its absolute value is -x.
Do it in two different ways in the same program: using "if" and using the "conditional operator" (?)
Code
Imports System
Public Class Exercise41
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim n, abs As Integer
Console.Write("Enter a number: ")
n = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine())
If n < 0 Then
abs = -n
Else
abs = n
End If
Console.WriteLine("Absolute valor is {0}", abs)
abs = If(n < 0, -n, n)
Console.WriteLine("And also {0}", abs)
End Sub
End Class
