   * Calculate the absolute value of a number. For matrices, the function is
   * evaluated element wise.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.abs(x)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.abs(3.5)                // returns number 3.5
   *    math.abs(-4.2)               // returns number 4.2
   *
   *    math.abs([3, -5, -1, 0, 2])  // returns Array [3, 5, 1, 0, 2]
   *

   *
   * @param  {number | BigNumber | Fraction | Complex | Array | Matrix | Unit} x
   *            A number or matrix for which to get the absolute value
   * @return {number | BigNumber | Fraction | Complex | Array | Matrix | Unit}
   *            Absolute value of `x`
