a signed number is one that can be negative (have a sign) whereas an unsigned number will only be positive. due to less information, you can double the largest number storable in a signed integer to get the data available in an unsigned integer. However, PHP doesn't have unsigned integers, they're all signed.
Whenever a computer program uses integers - for example, in a game, to store a player's score, but also for many other situations - this will internally be stored as a binary number. This number may be signed or unsigned. Some programming languages, such as Java, only use signed numbers. In other cases, the programmer may decide to use either signed or unsigned numbers, depending on his needs.
111100002 equals 24010 using unsigned notation. It equals -1610 using signed notation.
Signed integer is any integer that carries negative sign while unsigned integer is any integer that carries positive sign
Signed numbers are "plus" and "minus" numbers.
No, in Java, only signed numbers are defined.
The qualifier signed or unsigned may be applied to char or any integer. unsigned numbers are always positive or zero, and obey the laws of arithmetic modulo 2n, where n is the number of bits in the type. So, for instance, if charsare 8 bits, unsigned charvariables have values between 0 and 255, while signed charshave values between -128 and 127 (in a two's complement machine.) Whether plain charsare signed or unsigned is machine-dependent, but printable characters are always positive.
There are far more than 4 integral types in C++. As of C++11, there were 27 integral types: bool char signed char unsigned char wchar_t char16_t char32_t short signed short unsigned short short int signed short int unsigned short int int signed int unsigned int long signed long unsigned long long int signed long int unsigned long int long long signed long long unsigned long long long long int signed long long int unsigned long long int
A signed article identifies the writer whereas an unsigned article does not identify the author.

I assume you mean "stored". In each case, a total of 2 to the power 13 different numbers can be stored.
We need signed integers in order to represent both negative and positive values. However, some numbers can never be negative. For instance, the size of a file must always be greater than or equal to zero so we use unsigned integers to represent file sizes. Also, natural numbers must be greater than 0 so there's no point in using a signed value to represent a natural number. Signed integers also use one bit to denote the sign, but unsigned integers do not thus unsigned integers can effectively represent twice the range of positive values than an unsigned integer can. For instance, an 8-bit signed value can represent values in the range -128 to +127 using twos complement notation, but an 8-bit signed value can represent values in the range 0 to 255.
signed and unsigned
Nobody knows what you are talking about, but if you mean what the biggest number is in a byte, it is 255 or 127. The former is only for unsigned, while the latter is the maximun if the byte is signed. If you mean how many numbers can be represented, it is 256 or 128. Again, the former is if it is unsigned and the latter is if it is signed.
What is the significance of declaring a constant unsigned integer?
Whenever a computer program uses integers - for example, in a game, to store a player's score, but also for many other situations - this will internally be stored as a binary number. This number may be signed or unsigned. Some programming languages, such as Java, only use signed numbers. In other cases, the programmer may decide to use either signed or unsigned numbers, depending on his needs.
An unsigned integer cannot be negative. It has a maximum positive value twice that of a signed integer. Max signed: 128 Max signed: 256 I could be off by one there, though.
