<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry, i got confused by previous post from
Ben.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After checking my Redhat partition,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>it' s <STRONG>sqrt</STRONG> which belongs to
<STRONG>math.h</STRONG>,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG>abs</STRONG> is included in
<STRONG>stdlib.h</STRONG> ( on redhat ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>More generally speaking, when a function is
missing,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>don't forget the RTFM method, where M
stands</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>for "Man page".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>cheers,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>> <BR>> I did not have this problem using
Debian, only redhat.<BR>> <BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I see a lot of anti-redhat messages of that kind
on this list,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>but, as the man page from redhat says
:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG>#include
<math.h></STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG></STRONG></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG>int abs( int )</STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, redhat's not faulty there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#include <myopinion.h></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i'm curious of what man page says on
debian,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>because <STRONG>abs</STRONG> IS a math
function.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#endif</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>bye,</FONT></DIV>
