javascript: C/C++ use of int or unsigned int

vendredi 19 août 2016

In a lot of code examples, source code, libraries etc. I see the use of int when as far as I can see, an unsigned int would make much more sense.

One place I see this a lot is in for loops. See below example:

for(int i = 0; i < length; i++)
{
    // Do Stuff
}

Why on earth would you use an int rather than an unsigned int? Is it just laziness - people can't be bothered with typing unsigned?
