No negatives

Assume numbers in A1 and A2
I want to get the difference between A1 minus A2 but only if the answer is
NOT negative.I want to dispay 0 if then answer is negative.
I have been using =if (a1>A2,A1-A2,0)
is there an easier way?
Thanks

Hard to get much easier, but how about

=Max(0,A1-A2)
