Because the variable 'set' is not initialized; it's just using whatever value was left-over in memory.

Also, if you are wanting to print out the value of set, the printf statement should use '%d' instead of 'd'.

you need to initalize 'set' first

Code:
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

int set = 0;
int can = 4;

int += can;
printf("d", set);

return 0;

}
If you dont initialise variables first, they will just contain garbage values
