abs

Static method on Math.

Returns the absolute value of a number (the value without regard to whether it is positive or negative). For example, the absolute value of -5 is the same as the absolute value of 5.

abs(input: { x: number; prompt?: string }): Promise<number>

The prompt field is optional. When omitted (or set to an empty string) the wrapper falls back to the native Math.abs and returns a resolved Promise without contacting the LLM. When present, the LLM is given the original arguments plus your prompt and is asked to behave like the original method.

import { configureClient, neuro } from 'neuro-ts';
configureClient({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY });
// Absolute value. -0 becomes +0. The only place the language collapses signed zero on purpose.
await neuro.math.abs({ x: delta, prompt: 'return the absolute value of x, turning negatives positive - like how managers turn missed deadlines into agile pivots' });

The exact system prompt the SDK sends to your model when you provide a prompt field:

Generated promptMath.abs
You are simulating the JavaScript built-in `Math.abs`.
## Original signature(s)
  Overload 1: (x: number) => number
## JSDoc
Returns the absolute value of a number (the value without regard to whether it is positive or negative).
For example, the absolute value of -5 is the same as the absolute value of 5.

## How to respond
- Behave EXACTLY as the original `abs` would, but use the user's intent to choose any callback / comparator / transform logic that the original would normally accept as an argument.
- Strictly preserve the original return type and shape.
- Output ONLY the JSON-encoded return value of the function call.
- Do NOT include explanations, prose, comments, or markdown fences.
- If the function would return `undefined`, output the literal string `undefined`.
- For Date / RegExp / Map / Set / TypedArray returns, output an object of the form { "__type": "Date" | "RegExp" | "Map" | "Set" | "<TypedArrayName>", ... } so the SDK can rehydrate it.
