I am using printf function to send data to serial port. The mcu has to send a number which may be upto 65535.
But for numbers larger than 32767, I was getting negative numbers. To test it I wrote following code
unsigned int i; for(i=32760;i<=32770;i++) printf("%d\n", i); //printf ("char %bd int %d long %ld\n",a,b,c);
What I was getting in VB application is
32760 32761 32762 32763 32764 32765 32766 32767 -32768 -32767 -32766
So I tried the same program in Pelles C for Windows . The result was perfect.
32760 32761 32762 32763 32764 32765 32766 32767 32768 32769 32770 Press any key to continue...
Can somebody tell me what is wrong here?
