    <title>topic Converting negative zero values to absolute zero in SAS Programming</title>
    <link>https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Converting-negative-zero-values-to-absolute-zero/m-p/439347#M282405</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;When I use proc means on my data, actual mean and median values are&amp;nbsp; -0.00001 or -0.00004 and when I try to present in 2 decimal places, values are showing as -0.00 in my reports. However, instead of -0.00 in my final report, I want to present it as 0.00. Is there are sas function or any tips on resolving my issue.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks very much.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;There's the absolute value function ABS.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Or you can just use an assign statement to set numbers close to zero to equal exactly zero.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
