What happens if I assign a negative value to an unsigned variable?

Question

I was curious to know what would happen if I assign a negative value to an unsigned variable.

The code will look somewhat like this.

unsigned int nVa         


        

Answer 1

It will show as a positive integer of value of max unsigned integer - 4 (value depends on computer architecture and compiler).

BTW
You can check this by writing a simple C++ "hello world" type program and see for yourself
