The Modulus Function

Put very basically, the modulus function finds the absolute value of a number.

It is indicated by a pair of straight brackets around an x or a part of an equation.

It just means that -x when operated on by the modulus function becomes x while x stays as x.

It ignores negative values of x, or of the statement in x, such as (x-2).
