Self doubt- why isn't -ve int converted to 2's complement when storing in unsigned int.

Question

How is the output still -4? when we are  storing it in an unsigned int here shouldn’t it be converted to 2’s complement and then the absolute value of it be the result?

int main()
{
    unsigned int num = -4;
    printf("%d", num);
    return 0;
}

Comments

you are defining num as unsigned int but you are using format specifier for signed int %d

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    unsigned int num = -4;
    printf("%u", num);
    return 0;
}

Is the code which will give output as 4294967292. $ \ \ \ (2^{32} - 4)$
