Compile Error on Simple Subtraction

Projects Programming
1

Here is a very simple sketch:

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);          // debug write to the USB
}

void loop()
{
  int vR = 0;		      // reference voltage 
  int vP = 0;	              // potentiometer voltage
  int x = 0;                       // difference between the two
   
  vR = analogRead(A0);        // read vR to compare with vP
  
  vP = analogRead(A1);        // read vP to compare with vR

  x = vR – vP;                // calculate the difference
  
  Serial.print(x);            // write difference to console
}

Here are the compiler error messages:
minus:17: error: stray '' in program
minus.ino: In function 'void loop()':
minus:17: error: expected `;' before 'u2013'

If I comment out the
x = vR – vP; // calculate the difference
line (17), it compiles OK.

I tried to search existing posts but didn't find an answer.

What gives???

Retyped the minus and it all works! I must have cut n pasted at some point. Many thanks.
