Addition Subtraction
Addition of positive integers :
 is represented by moving towards the right.
 Example : -2 + 2 = 0
Addition of negative integers :
 is represented by moving towards the left.
 Example : 2 + (- 3) = -1
Subtraction of positive integers :
 is represented by moving towards the left.
 Example : 1 - 2 = -1
Subtraction of negative integers :
 is represented by moving towards the right.
 Example : -1 – (- 3 ) =2
