<para>
<function>Memcache::decrement</function> decrements value of the
item by <parameter>value</parameter>. Similarly to
<function>Memcache::increment</function>, current value of the item is
being converted to numerical and after that <parameter>value</parameter>
is substracted.
<note>
<para>
New item's value will not be less than zero.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<para>
Do not use <function>Memcache::decrement</function> with item, which was
stored compressed, because consequent call to
<function>Memcache::get</function> will fail.
</para>
</note>
<function>Memcache::decrement</function> <emphasis>does not</emphasis>
create an item if it didn't exist.
Also you can use <function>memcache_decrement</function> function.
