Ganzizahl d = c - 5;   // Sets d to 40
Ganzizahl e = d - 60;  // Sets e to -20

Ganzizahl a = 5;         // Sets "a" to 5 
Ganzizahl b = -a;        // Sets "b" to -5 
Ganzizahl c = -(5 + 3);  // Sets "c" to -8
Description Subtracts one value from another and may also be used to negate a value. As a subtraction operator, the value of the second parameter is subtracted from the first. For example, 5 - 3 yields the number 2. As a negation operator, it is equivalent to multiplying a number by -1. For example, -5 is the same as 5 * -1.
