Convert Binary String to Integer Without strtol function or Libraries

Code

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

uint16_t binary_to_uint(const char *str) {
    uint16_t binary = 0;
    int c;
    while (c = *str++) {
        binary <<= 1;
        binary += c - '0';
    }
    return binary;
}

int main() {
    char bin[20];
    scanf("%s", bin);

    printf("%u", binary_to_uint(bin));
    return 0;
}
