public:
static System::Decimal operator -(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2);
public:
static System::Decimal operator -(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2) = System::Numerics::ISubtractionOperators<System::Decimal, System::Decimal, System::Decimal>::op_Subtraction;
public static decimal operator - (decimal d1, decimal d2);
static member ( - ) : decimal * decimal -> decimal
Public Shared Operator - (d1 As Decimal, d2 As Decimal) As Decimal
Parameters
- d1
- Decimal
The minuend.
- d2
- Decimal
The subtrahend.
Returns
The result of subtracting d2
from d1
.
Implements
Exceptions
The return value is less than Decimal.MinValue or greater than Decimal.MaxValue.
Remarks
The Subtraction method defines the operation of the subtraction operator for Decimal values. It enables code such as the following:
using System;
public class Example
{
public static void Main()
{
Decimal number1 = 120.07m;
Decimal number2 = 163.19m;
Decimal number3 = number1 - number2;
Console.WriteLine("{0} - {1} = {2}",
number1, number2, number3);
}
}
// The example displays the following output:
// 120.07 - 163.19 = -43.12
let number1 = 120.07m
let number2 = 163.19m
let number3 = number1 - number2
printfn $"{number1} - {number2} = {number3}"
// The example displays the following output:
// 120.07 - 163.19 = -43.12
Module Example
Public Sub Main()
Dim number1 As Decimal = 120.07d
Dim number2 As Decimal = 163.19d
Dim number3 As Decimal = number1 - number2
Console.WriteLine("{0} - {1} = {2}",
number1, number2, number3)
End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
' 120.07 - 163.19 = -43.12
If the language you're using doesn't support custom operators, call the Subtract method instead.
The equivalent method for this operator is Decimal.Subtract(Decimal, Decimal)
