Bit Spreading Interleave Bits with Zeros

Code

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

uint16_t spread_bits(uint8_t val) {
    // Your logic here

uint16_t temp = 0;
uint16_t temp2 = 0;

    for(int i=0; i<=7; i++)
    {
        temp = val&(1<<i);
        
        temp2 = temp2 | temp<<(i);
    }

    return temp2;
}

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

    uint16_t result = spread_bits(val);
    printf("%u", result);
    return 0;
}
