[New-bugs-announce] [issue44519] help(math.fabs)

[David Lambert]

New submission from David Lambert <b49p23tivg at gmail.com>:

math.fabs returns float.
The documentation should say so, and help(math.fabs) should include the expected return type  -> float

fabs(x, /) -> float
    Return the absolute value of the float x.

I did not check, but expect these annotations recommendations are pervasive throughout the python libraries.
