My book told me to guess what these two pieces of code are supposed to do.
What do these codes do?
Unsigned integers aren't supposed to do anything, right?
Also, can somebody explain why instead of saying unsigned short int x; and unsigned short int y; it says the following?:

Unsigned versions of a variable type make it only able to hold a number between (and including) 0 and the max value of that data type. Negative values cannot be held in unsigned data types.

When people use short instead of short int, it's because they're lazy. short int and short are the same. You can test it out if you like. All you have to do is put in the max value and add one. If it is signed, it will go negative and if it isn't, it will go to 0.

If you just use the general form "int", the compiler generally optimizes it to the lowest storage possible anyways. It all depends on what it sees you using that storage space for.
