Hello! I'm using Mozart Oz and I'm trying to answer this question: Write a function Abs that computes the absolute value of a number. This should work for both integers and real numbers. For example, {Abs ~2} should return 2, {Abs ~2.5} should return 2.5, and {Abs 7} should return 7. I feel I'm making multiple syntax errors, though I figured I'd ask for some help. Again, the language is Oz. Thank you!

Hello and thank you for taking the time to help with this question! You were right in that I was missing brackets and the nested if statement wasn't there. I had it separate and that was an issue. However, when I run this code, "variable IsReal" and "ariable IsInteger" not introduced. What am I missing? Thank you!
