Notes for Slide 05 The subtraction-operator: - :is placed between two numbers in order to subtract the second number from the first number. Unlike the comparison operators which result in a boolean value, the subtraction-operator results in an int value. The statement that we have seen so far that contain a subtraction-operator is the set-statement. Although this is a review, it is also a good time to complete the description of the subtraction-operator. It does not actually have to be placed between two numbers. If the first number is zero, you do not have to actually show the zero. This is a shorthand way of negating a number. It only saves you from typing one key on the keyboard, but it might make understanding your program easier to read. 1, 2, 3, 4, [5 (top)], 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, [Lab] |
