Bit Reversal in an 8-bit Value

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

uint8_t reverse_bits(uint8_t val) {
    //concept, iterate through the val bit by bit and affect it to the result, shifting result and val by one bit each operation
    int result = 0;
    for(int i=0;i<8;i++){
        result <<=1;
        result |= (val & 1);
        val >>= 1;
    }

    return result;
}

int main() {
    uint8_t val;
    scanf("%hhu", &val);

    uint8_t result = reverse_bits(val);
    printf("%u", result);
    return 0;
}
