- -- a unary or binary operator, usually used for negation or subtraction

x - y -- a binary operator used for subtraction in many situations and set difference.
- y -- a unary operator usually used for negation.

See also:

  • difference -- difference
  • minus -- additive inverse
  • This operator may be used as a binary operator in an expression like x - y. The user may install binary methods for handling such expressions with code such as

                  X - Y := (x,y) -> ...
    where X is the class of x and Y is the class of y.

    This operator may be used as a prefix unary operator in an expression like - y. The user may install a method for handling such expressions with code such as

                    - Y := (y) -> ...
    where Y is the class of y.
