# Take two numbers
num1 = float(input("Enter first number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter second number: "))

# Calculate absolute difference
diff = abs(num1 - num2)

# Check
if diff < 10:
    print(f"Absolute difference ({diff}) is less than 10")
else:
    print(f"Absolute difference ({diff}) is not less than 10")

Output

Enter first number: 15
Enter second number: 20
Absolute difference (5.0) is less than 10

Enter first number: 15
Enter second number: 30
Absolute difference (15.0) is not less than 10

Calculate absolute difference and compare.
