# --description--
You can easily <dfn>decrement</dfn> or decrease a variable by one with the `--` operator.
`i--;`
is the equivalent of
`i = i - 1;`
**Note**
The entire line becomes `i--;`, eliminating the need for the equal sign.
# --instructions--
Change the code to use the `--` operator on `myVar`.
# --hints--
`myVar` should equal `10`.
```js
assert(myVar === 10);
```
`myVar = myVar - 1;` should be changed.
```js
assert(
/var\s*myVar\s*=\s*11;\s*\/*.*\s*([-]{2}\s*myVar|myVar\s*[-]{2});/.test(code)
);
```
You should use the `--` operator on `myVar`.
```js
assert(/[-]{2}\s*myVar|myVar\s*[-]{2}/.test(code));
```
You should not change code above the specified comment.
```js
assert(/var myVar = 11;/.test(code));
```
# --seed--
## --after-user-code--
```js
(function(z){return 'myVar = ' + z;})(myVar);
```
## --seed-contents--
```js
var myVar = 11;
// Only change code below this line
myVar = myVar - 1;
```
# --solutions--
```js
var myVar = 11;
myVar--;
```
