char is not signed char

Has anybody else noticed that char is not signed char but unsigend
char? If I write the following:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

	char a = -3;
	if(a > 0)
		printf("Ooops!\n");
	return 0;
}

and run it, I get Oooops!

Currently I have installed fsirl's 2.95.3 version of gcc.


Thanks,
David
