For DB upgrade (from 1.5 to 3.0) I need to define custom internal function like 
this:

create or alter function F_ABS (
    VAR_1 double precision)
returns integer
AS
declare variable result double precision;

begin

  result = abs(var_1);
  return result;

end
 

 But I am confused. My experiments assert that ASB internal function is 
polymorphic - it returns BIGINT for BIGINT argument and DOUBLE PRECISION for 
DOUBLE PRECISION arguments, it can be tricky to determine the return type if 
string arguments is given (and implicit conversion occurs). 

 

 I would like that F_ABS has this polymorphic nature of ABS. How should I 
declare F_ABS to have this polymorphic nature?
