C comparison char and int

Question

In the code block below what\'s the impicit conversion that takes place in the if statement for 7? I would have though it would end up being (0x98 <= 0x07) but that\'s no

Answer 1

It will evaluate the same as 0x98 <= 7 unless the platform's char type defaults to signed and CHAR_BIT is 8. In that case, the value of minstogo will be negative and minstogo <= 7 will be true.
