import { difference } from '@princedev/calculate';

Basic usage with two given numbers.

const result = difference(12,24);

result would be -12

Subtracting multiple given nnumbers.

const result = difference(24,12,8);

result would be 4 as it is evaluated as 24 - 12 - 8.

If you're using an array, you can use the spread operator like this

const result = difference(...[24,12,8]);

result would be 4
