Positive integers are whole numbers greater than 0. In other words 1, 2, 3, ...
Negative integers are whole numbers less than zero. Such as -1, -2, -3, ...
Integers include all whole numbers as well as their negative counterparts. Therefore, negative integers such as -1, -2, and -3 are examples of integers that are not whole numbers. Whole numbers, on the other hand, consist only of non-negative integers, including zero and positive integers.
Adding integers involves combining whole numbers, whether positive or negative. For example, adding two positive integers like 3 and 5 gives you 8 (3 + 5 = 8). When adding a positive and a negative integer, such as 7 and -4, you subtract the negative from the positive, resulting in 3 (7 + (-4) = 3). If both integers are negative, like -2 and -6, you simply add their absolute values and keep the negative sign, yielding -8 (-2 + -6 = -8).
Natural numbers are sometimes defined to include zero, sometimes not. Equivalent terms therefore may include: positive integers, non-negative integers, whole numbers, positive whole numbers ("whole number" is ambiguous; some take it to include negative numbers, some not).
Common misconceptions about integers include the belief that they only represent positive whole numbers, while in fact, integers encompass both positive and negative whole numbers, as well as zero. Another misconception is that the absolute value of an integer can be negative; however, the absolute value is always non-negative. Additionally, some may think that integers cannot be fractions or decimals, but this is accurate since integers are strictly whole numbers. Lastly, there can be confusion around operations, such as assuming that subtracting a larger integer from a smaller one always results in a positive outcome, when it can produce a negative result.
If you add a positive and a negative number, the result can be positive, negative, or zero - depending on which of the numbers has the greater absolute value. Here are some examples: 4 + (-4) = 0 (zero) 4 + (-6) = -2 (negative) 4 + (-2) = 2 (positive)
There are no negative integers between positive ones on the number line.

Positive and negative whole numbers: -39, 67, 0, 58, -4 Integers are just negative and positive real numbers and zero. Here is a list: ...... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...... The list continues in both directions.
what are some examples of subtracting integers
Some examples of gram-positive bacteria include Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Examples of gram-negative bacteria include Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
It depends. Some authors consider "Whole Numbers" to be the positive integers, some consider them to be the non-negative integers, and some consider them to be all integers. For the first two definitions, numbers like -3 would not be considered "whole numbers". With the last definition, negative numbers like -3 would be considered a "whole number".
Natural numbers are positive integers, also known as counting numbers. Some examples are 3, 4, 4359.
Traditionally, the set of integers that represents the natural numbers is {1,2,3,...}, which are the positive integers. Some people include the non-negative integers as the set of natural numbers, which is {0,1,2,3,...}, and includes 0.
