Answer 2

You changed the Description.
I suspect that happens because 417 is out of data range of 'byte' which is around -128 ~ 127. That might be an effect of value overflow, but I'm not sure I can explain.
This article covers overflow effect of `int` type, but I suppose the same thing can happen with `byte`.
