I expected that below code will output 10
because (~port)
equal to 10100101
So, when we right shift it by 4
we get 00001010
which is 10
.
But the output is 250
! Why?
int main()
uint8_t port = 0x5a;
uint8_t result_8 = (~port) >> 4;
//result_8 = result_8 >> 4;
printf("%i", result_8);
return 0;

C promotes uint8_t
to int
before doing operations on it. So:
port
is promoted to signed integer0x0000005a
.~
inverts it giving0xffffffa5
.- An arithmetic shift returns
0xfffffffa
. - It's truncated back into a
uint8_t
giving0xfa == 250
.
To fix that, either truncate the temporary result:
uint8_t result_8 = (uint8_t)(~port) >> 4;
or mask it:
uint8_t result_8 = (~port & 0xff) >> 4;
you're right but i think C doesn't promote onlyuint8_t
but alsounsigned char
because i tested it withunsigned char
too and got the same result! Am i right?
