I took this a completely different way.  I was thinking of 1.5 as
a float, not a release number.

For a floating point number, you are probably looking for the abs()
function.  It is a builtin, so you can just use it directly:

$ python -c 'print abs(-1.5), abs(1.5)'
1.5 1.5

But with this illness, I could have easily gotten mistaken. :)
