Can be used to subtract two numbers.
Syntax
number subtract(number $left, number $right)
Subtracts $right from $left.
Parameters
$left: The first number. Can be of type number (integer/float) and string.
$right: The second number. Can be of type number (integer/float) and string.
Example
In the example below, two key-value pairs, each containing a number value, are used in combination with the subtract function.
{
"x": 5,
"y": 3
}
{
sub: subtract(x, y)
}
{
"sub": 2
}
Notes
Numbers vs. strings
Even though string parameters works, it is recommended to use numbers (integers or floats) since strings are more error prone.
Decimal separator in floats
The decimal separator in floats is a dot and not a comma as in some regions of the world. i.e. 5.8 rather than 5,8.
