Hi Kathy,

Thanks for this! You and your students found a bug in the abs function. The difference of the missing value and the mean is correctly evaluated as a missing value, but abs incorrectly reports zero instead of missing. Please convey our thanks to your class!

The bug fix will probably appear in less than two weeks. I’m sorry your teaching moment will be taken away. 😉
