While the signed vs unsigned int question doesn't concern me much[1], I really appreciate this post because I discovered the One Page CPU. The author nerd-sniped me three paragraphs in. Now I want to try to implement this on an FPGA. I think my next few weekends will be taken up with getting a real world implementation working and getting some examples working. Thanks.
[1] If I was designing a system that could only have one type of int (but why?) I'd use unsigned ints and if I needed to represent negative numbers, I'd use two's complement which is fairly well behaved, much as the author points out. This is fairly common in the embedded world.
