I have assigned the complement value in an unsigned variable.
Then why this C program outputs a negative number?
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main()
{
unsigned int Value = 4; /* 4 = 0000 0000 0000 0100 */
unsigned int result = 0;
result = ~ Value; /* -5 = 1111 1111 1111 1011 */
printf("result = %d", result); /* -5 */
getch();
return 0;
}
The %d
format specifier instructs printf
to treat the argument as a signed integer. Use %u
instead.
