21     //! Specifically, this performs the `Monoid` operation on the first
22     //! argument and on the inverse of the second argument, thus being
23     //! equivalent to:
24     //! @code
25     //!     minus(x, y) == plus(x, negate(y))
26     //! @endcode
27     //!

29     //! Cross-type version of the method
30     //! --------------------------------
31     //! The `minus` method is "overloaded" to handle distinct data types
32     //! with certain properties. Specifically, `minus` is defined for
33     //! _distinct_ data types `A` and `B` such that
34     //! 1. `A` and `B` share a common data type `C`, as determined by the
35     //!    `common` metafunction
36     //! 2. `A`, `B` and `C` are all `Group`s when taken individually
37     //! 3. `to<C> : A -> B` and `to<C> : B -> C` are `Group`-embeddings, as
38     //!    determined by the `is_embedding` metafunction.
39     //!
40     //! The definition of `minus` for data types satisfying the above
41     //! properties is obtained by setting
42     //! @code
43     //!     minus(x, y) = minus(to<C>(x), to<C>(y))
44     //! @endcode
45     //!
46     //!
