Method: Rational#-

Defined in:
rational.c

#-(numeric) ⇒ Numeric

Performs subtraction.

Rational(2, 3)  - Rational(2, 3)   #=> (0/1)
Rational(900)   - Rational(1)      #=> (899/1)
Rational(-2, 9) - Rational(-9, 2)  #=> (77/18)
Rational(9, 8)  - 4                #=> (-23/8)
Rational(20, 9) - 9.8              #=> -7.577777777777778
