Explanation

Negating something twice is usually the same as not negating it at all. However, a double negation in Rust can easily be confused with the prefix decrement operator that exists in many languages derived from C. Use -(-x) if you really wanted to negate the value twice.

To decrement a value, use x -= 1 instead.
