Detect Circular Pattern Match

Code

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

uint8_t is_circular_match(uint16_t reg, uint16_t target) {
    // Your code here
    uint8_t a = 0;
    for(int i = 0; i<16;i++){
        if(target == reg){
            a=1;
            break;
        }
        reg = reg>>1 | reg<<15;
    }
    return a;
}

int main() {
    uint16_t reg, target;
    scanf("%hu %hu", &reg, &target);
    printf("%hhu", is_circular_match(reg, target));
    return 0;
}
