what is the output of the following programming????

and am confusing is unsigned int stores signed integer, and

what is ‘ ’ this symbol ?? and what happened when assigning ‘~0’ to y????? and

what will be printed when x,y are printing and how …?

can anyone tell me how it happened ..Thankyou…..!

 #include  int  main()  {     unsigned int x = -1;     int y = ~0;     if (x == y)        printf("same");     else       printf("not same");  printf("\n x is %u, y is %u", x, y);    return 0;  }

1) When you assign the sign bit to unsigned bit then first converted to 2s complement

-1 => 1| 1 where first 1 is sign and second represent value

Now applying sign bit extension rule so 1111...1 upto the size/capacity of x

2) y=~0 means flip bits and represent in 2s complement i.e -(0+1) = -1

3) x==y then from y=-1 it is converted to unsigned which is 1111.1 upto the size/capacity of y which is same as size taken by x

Hence x and y contains same value

so same is printed

And output in 64 bit compiler is 4294967295 4294967295 here also converting signed to unsigned for y

nice explanation.....,but am not understanding how 2's complement of 0 will -1. i think 2's complement of 0 is again 0.

Conclusion for ~ is that

~N = -(N+1)

okay thank you.......!
