👉 Subputation is a method of computing with two operands, one being subtracted from another. It involves performing arithmetic operations on these numbers by subtracting them from each other. In simple terms, it means performing addition and subtraction in reverse order. For example, if you have 5 apples and want to know how many bananas you can get, you would use the subputation method first: 1. Subtract 5 apples from 5 bananas: 5 - 5 = 0 2.
