"Any way i can do this", yes try subtracting the integers using the - operator.

Yes it does. It works every time. YOU are doing something wrong. But since you decided not to explain the actual problem or show your code..... what is it that you expect us to do for you?

Show your code please, or a relevant piece of it.

Solution 1

If you're asking such a basic question you REALLY need to pickup a beginners book on C# and work through it. You need to assign the value to some other variable in order for anything to make sense and be usable.

C#

int result = int1 - int2;
