Is there a way to write absolute value bars when asking a question? I looked through the list of symbols given on the website, but I didn't see anything.

You can use the abs(x) function.

Explanation:

To write absolute value bars, use abs function with the hashtags.

When you write #abs(x)# in the Answer section(# must be written in half-width character), you actually see #abs(x)# in the screen.

Alternatively, you can...

Explanation:

... write something like

  • without hashtags

|x|

  • with hashtags

#|x|#

to get the same result. So just use the vertical bar symbol located on your keyboard to get the absolute value bars in between hashtags.
