I know this one is really easy, but I can't seem to find it.

I have a negative number assigned to a variable and I need to take that
number and assign it to a second variable except I need the postive value of
that number to be assigned to the second variable.

variable1 = -10

variable2 = Positive(variable1)

I'm sure there is some sort of format expression similar to the above that I
can use. Any help is greatly appreciated.

variable2 = Abs(variable1)
