A:
Rubish and more rubish.
You would get something meaningful if you did the following though
printf("%d\n", (int)a);

@Paul R: How did you know it was unintentional? Not saying it wasn't mind you.

@torak: apologies if it was intentional - I thought it was probably just a typo that happened to be quite funny and apposite. :-)

@Paul R: No, it wasn't intentional. Actually, I appreciate you letting me in on my own joke. :)
