Decimal.UnaryNegation Operator

.NET Framework 4.5

Negates the value of the specified Decimal operand.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

public static decimal operator -(
	decimal d
)

Parameters

d: Type: System.Decimal
The value to negate.

Return Value

Type: System.Decimal
The result of d multiplied by negative one (-1).

Remarks

The UnaryPlus method defines the operation of the unary negation operator (or the additive inverse operator) for Decimal values. The operation produces a value that results in 0 (zero) when it is added to the original number. Languages that do not support custom operators can call the Negate method instead.
