Bit Reversal in an 8-bit Value

Code

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

uint8_t reverse_bits(uint8_t val) {
    // Your logic here
    uint8_t reverse;
    if (val == 0xFF || val == 0) return val;
    for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
    {
        reverse <<= 1;
        uint8_t bit = (val & 1);
        reverse |= bit;    
        val >>= 1;
    }
    return reverse;
}

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

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