What is an Absolute Difference?

An absolute difference is a measure of the difference between two numbers but expressed as a positive number. In other words, it’s taking the difference between two values (X - Y) and then calculating the absolute value of the result.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{ABS D} = |15 - 10| = 5 \]

The absolute difference (ABS D) is 5.
