  2. Apr 17, 2013 · A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow, because a result that cannot be represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is reduced modulo to the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be represented by the resulting type.

  3. Aug 29, 2024 · Oddly, the C++ standard explicitly says “a computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow”. This is contrary to general programming consensus that integer overflow encompasses both signed and unsigned use cases (cite).

  4. In computer programming, an integer overflow occurs when an arithmetic operation on integers attempts to create a numeric value that is outside of the range that can be represented with a given number of digits – either higher than the maximum or lower than the minimum representable value.

  5. May 30, 2024 · A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow because a result that the resulting unsigned integer type cannot represent is reduced modulo the number that is one greater than the largest value that the resulting type can represent.

  6. A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow, because a result that cannot be represented by the resulting unsigned integer type is reduced modulo the number that is one greater than the largest value that can be represented by the resulting ...

  7. We would therefore claim that wording that says “A computation involving unsigned operands can never overflow” is misleading using any definition of “overflow” in common usage. Unsigned oper-ands can overflow, even though C defines precisely how this kind of overflow is handled (by wrap-ping).

  8. Mar 11, 2015 · In C programming language, a computation of unsigned integer values can never overflow, this means that UINT_MAX + 1 yields zero. More precise, according to the C standard unsigned integer operations do wrap around, the C Standard, 6.2.5, paragraph 9 [ISO/IEC 9899:2011], states:
