Description: An absolute value F generates a metric defined by
d ( x , y ) = F ( x - y ) , analogously to cnmet . (In fact, the
ring structure is not needed at all; the group properties abveq0 and
abvtri , abvneg are sufficient.) (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 9-Sep-2014)(Revised by Mario Carneiro, 2-Oct-2015)
