Subject: abs()olutely hopeless?

Unfortunately, I am new in C/C++. So it took me some days to figure out, that
e.g. y = abs(sin(t)); is nonsens.
But for a lot of programs (translated from Pascal to C) I need an abs(), that
returns int if an int was passed (for e.g. y = x[abs(m)]) and a float if a
float was passed (see above).

Can anybody help me? Thanks.
