Input:
num_1 = 5
num_2 = 34.5
subtraction = num_1 - num_2

print(f'The subtraction of {num_1} and {num_2} is {subtraction}')

Output:
The subtraction of 5 and 34.5 is -29.5
Input:
num_1  = 43.6 + 7j
num_2 = 6.5 + 5j
subtraction = num_1 - num_2

print(f'The subtraction of {num_1} and {num_2} is {subtraction}')

Output:
The subtraction of (43.6+7j) and (6.5+5j) is (37.1+2j)
