[Dev-C++] Error while doing a simple example

[Christian S. <sm...@xs...>]

Hi,

From the book learn C in 24 hours I typed this lesson and build/run it:

#include <stdio.h>

main ( )

{

  int x;
  unsigned int y;
  x = 0xAB78;
  y = 0xAB78u;

  printf ("De decimal value of 0xAB78 is: %d.\n", x);
  printf ("De decimal value of 0xAB78u is: %u.\n", y);

  return 0;

}

However this returns me for both statments (printf's):  43896 but the book
tells me it should return -21640 for the signed integer (first printf).

I'm using:

Windows 2000 SP3
PIII 550 MHz
DevC++ 4.9.8.0

Could anyone tell where my mistake is?

Thanks in advance.
