It should work in the Code primitive. If you want to get an absolute value in the assembly primitive, you can "mask" your variable by using an andps operation with the integer 2147483647, which is all bits on except the sign bit. Below shows an example of the two methods...

The short answer is "you can't."
However, the code primitive (blue) does have a "string" output that shows SM's compiled version of the contents of the code box. You can use this as a transition to full-on assembly programming. What you need to do: write out your code in the blue code box. Then connect the "S" output to a text primitive. Click in the text primitive and hit CTRL-A to select all of the contents. Hit CTRL-C to copy the contents. Open up a green assembler primitive. Click inside and hit CTRL-V to paste the text. See below...
From there you can edit the assembly code to do whatever you want. Be warned, SM only has a limited set of opcodes available. The list is on the WIKI (search "opcodes"). You'll see that you can achieve some jumping within the assembler. To see examples of how this is done, use the above method to view the compiled versions of code with "hop" and "loop" routines. That should give you some clues about how to approach this.

The abs() command (and a few others) were only added to SM quite recently - could be that your version of SM is older (Fruity Loops or Free version maybe?) and does not have those functions. In the mean-time, you can use abs() in code (blue) by substituting the following equation...
abs = x * (1 - 2 & ( x < 0 )); //multiplies by -1 if x < 0
