Absolute Then Double
Programming Basics · C#
TASK
Problem
Given an integer `n`, output `2 * |n|`. Print only the required answer; do not print prompts, labels, or debug text.
EXAMPLE
Example
-7
14
LIMITS
Constraints
- Every token parsed with `int.Parse` is a valid 32-bit signed integer; test data avoid unintended overflow in the task's intended calculation. - Input is syntactically valid for the task except where invalid input is deliberately being tested (for example a `TryParse`/validation exercise). - Print only the required answer; do not add prompts, labels, debug text, or extra spaces/lines.

Theory for this problem
+
This is a direct arithmetic transformation. Name the input values, translate the formula exactly into C# operators, store the intermediate result when it improves readability, and print only the final value. For **Absolute Then Double**, the concrete requirement is: Given an integer `n`, output `2 * |n|`. Keep input parsing, the core operation, and output formatting separate so each part can be checked independently.

using System;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
int n=int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
int result=2*Math.Abs(n);
Console.WriteLine(result);
