Convert unsigned int to signed int C

Question

I am trying to convert 65529 from an unsigned int to a signed int. I tried doing a cast like this:

unsigned int x = 65         


        

Answer 1

To answer the question posted in the comment above - try something like this:

unsigned short int x = 65529U;
short int y = (short int)x;

printf("%d\n", y);

or

unsigned short int x = 65529U;
short int y = 0;

memcpy(&y, &x, sizeof(short int);
printf("%d\n", y);
