## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
You can easily <dfn>decrement</dfn> or decrease a variable by one with the <code>--</code> operator.
|
|
<code>i--;</code>
|
|
is the equivalent of
|
|
<code>i = i - 1;</code>
|
|
<strong>Note</strong><br>The entire line becomes <code>i--;</code>, eliminating the need for the equal sign.
