Rounding off values in a column - SparkR

I have the below values in one of the column in a dataframe

231204.66666666666
             376.0
          346593.5
             802.0
          346594.5
             801.0
          346595.5
             800.0
              null
               0.0

I just want the absolute value in this column. How can I do that in SparkR?

I found abs and round from SparkR which can do this job. But unfortunately it is not exported. Getting the below exception when I use Spark::abs(df$col)```

Error: 'abs' is not an exported object from 'namespace:SparkR'

I am getting the same error for SparkR::round as well.

I tried the below, but the column value not changed.

df$col <- abs(df$col)

How can I get the absolute value in the column?

The sample you gave does not change under abs(). abs has to be combined with round. Like, round(abs(df$col))
