有符号整数和无符号整数之间的区别是:

Unsigned值可以是一个较大的正数,而不能是负数。 Unsigned版本使用前导位作为值的一部分,而signed版本使用最左边的位来识别数字是正还是负。 有符号整数可以同时包含正数和负数。

还有其他区别吗?

是的,无符号整数可以存储大的值。 不,有不同的方式来表示正数和负数。 是的,有符号整数可以包含正数和负数。

一般来说,这是正确的。在不知道你为什么要寻找差异的情况下,我想不出有符号和无符号之间的任何其他区别。

除了第二点,其他都是正确的。有符号整型有许多不同的表示法,有些实现使用第一种,有些使用最后一种,还有一些使用完全不同的表示法。这取决于你所使用的平台。

Signed integers in C represent numbers. If a and b are variables of signed integer types, the standard will never require that a compiler make the expression a+=b store into a anything other than the arithmetic sum of their respective values. To be sure, if the arithmetic sum would not fit into a, the processor might not be able to put it there, but the standard would not require the compiler to truncate or wrap the value, or do anything else for that matter if values that exceed the limits for their types. Note that while the standard does not require it, C implementations are allowed to trap arithmetic overflows with signed values.

Unsigned integers in C behave as abstract algebraic rings of integers which are congruent modulo some power of two, except in scenarios involving conversions to, or operations with, larger types. Converting an integer of any size to a 32-bit unsigned type will yield the member corresponding to things which are congruent to that integer mod 4,294,967,296. The reason subtracting 3 from 2 yields 4,294,967,295 is that adding something congruent to 3 to something congruent to 4,294,967,295 will yield something congruent to 2.

Abstract algebraic rings types are often handy things to have; unfortunately, C uses signedness as the deciding factor for whether a type should behave as a ring. Worse, unsigned values are treated as numbers rather than ring members when converted to larger types, and unsigned values smaller than int get converted to numbers when any arithmetic is performed upon them. If v is a uint32_t which equals 4,294,967,294, then v*=v; should make v=4. Unfortunately, if int is 64 bits, then there's no telling what v*=v; could do.

鉴于标准的现状,我建议在需要与代数环相关的行为时使用无符号类型,在需要表示数字时使用有符号类型。不幸的是,C以这种方式进行了区分,但它们就是它们。

Unsigned值可以是一个较大的正数,而不能是负数。

Yes.

Unsigned版本使用前导位作为值的一部分,而signed版本使用最左边的位来识别数字是正还是负。

有不同的表示有符号整数的方法。最容易想象的是使用最左边的位作为标志(符号和幅度),但更常见的是2的补位。这两种方法在大多数现代微处理器中都有使用——浮点数使用符号和幅度,而整数算术使用2的补数。

有符号整数可以同时包含正数和负数。

Yes.
