I use uints every day at work. They’re very useful for cases when you’ve only got a single byte or two bytes to work with. E.g. an 8-bit int will only get you to a max of 127, but of course an unsigned 8-bit gets you to 255. Similar concept with 16/32/64s. Very useful when you’re working with small amounts of available memory, such as when writing code to go on ASICs.
