having trouble with creating a method with two variables can anybody help with understanding this concept?

I don't understand this concept of creating a method with two variables. this problem requires me to create a method called subtract with two variables. can anyone help.

def subtract (a) (b) end

Daniel, you are heading in the right direction, but arguments are comma separated, and end needs to be on its own line:

def subtract (a, b)

end
