I've definitely run into the need for abs() and sign() in my programs. These
are very basic math functions which apply both to general use as well as to
more math-specific purposes. They're also standard in most other programming
languages, if I'm not mistaken.

I'll vote for an 'abs' function. I haven't used 'min' and 'max' as
much, and I'm not sure if I've ever had a need for 'sgn', but 'abs'
should be a definite, if this ever comes to fruition.

I would like to propose a few general math functions which I use all the
time: max, min, abs, sgn.
