The Function ‘ABS(Absolute)’ will show the Absolute value of a content or Number.
First i import all the required java packages from java library. Then after i made a class named ‘MySqlABSOLUTEFunction’ extends the ‘HttpServlet’.i use the serviceMethod() which is responsible for the getting request from doGet() method. Then after need to load all the drivers as required. And to declare the mandatory variables like Connection (the variable Connection will use to establish the link between database and java code(actual code).ResultSet the variable Resultset does the job to fetch the value from required columns and rows.preparedStatement this variable use to execute the query like executeQuery() as (Select ABS(‘-39’)) and after then i use doGet() method to get the output on the web Browser.
To get the Output in an impressive look, i use some tags of ‘HTML’ Code which will bring the Output in tabular form on a web browser.
