The behaviours of these are all defined, but are at least partially 
implementation-defined.

"0" is of type "int".  So "~0" gives the "int" value where all bits are 
set to 1.  Given two's complement representation (since we are now on 
C23), that means the initialisations are the same as if you had written 
"= -1;", and in each case your variable gets the highest value of the 
target unsigned integer type.

Prior to C23, two's complement was not the only representation 
available.  The bit-inversion of 0 is not necessarily the value 1.  With 
sign-magnitude, it would (I think) be INT_MIN, and the conversion to an 
unsigned type would not be all ones.

(Padding bits, if any, should not affect the results here.)
