Look at an easier problem:
What is tyhe differeence between 1 and 4 ?
+4+-+1+=+3+ That is the difference, but
the numbers in between are 2 numbers, 2 and 3
which is 1 less than the difference, so
The difference between 77 and 32 is
+77+-+32+=+45+
+45+-+1+=+44+
There are 44 numbers between 32 and 77
