I have a table that I want to see the difference between 2 columns in the results set. I am not sure how the syntax for this would look.
Basically I have a table that has 1 column (expected_row_counts) and another (actual_row_counts) and i want to see the difference between these in my select.

Thank you

SELECT Expected_row_counts-Actual_Row_Counts as [Difference]
FROM .....
