You could try just reading the standards; speculation here is worse
than futile, as it only encourages foolishness.

ISO C99:

       [#5]  The  result of the logical negation operator ! is 0 if
       the value of its operand compares unequal to  0,  1  if  the
       value  of  its  operand compares equal to 0.  The result has
       type int.  The expression !E is equivalent to (0==E).
