Contents: The two-parameter absolute-difference equation xn+1=|axn-bxn-1| is studied. Based on the parameter values a, b and a pair of initial values, we consider the existence and bifurcations of solutions having one or more of the following properties: (i) unbounded, (ii) convergent (to zero or to a positive constant), (iii) monotonic, (iv) periodic and (v) non-periodic oscillatory. The semiconjugate first order equation satisfied by the ratios {xn/xn-1} is used to significant advantage for points (a,b) in certain regions of the parameter plane. Some open problems and conjectures are presented.
