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 count = 0;
    for(int i = 0; i < 16 ; i++)
    {
        if((reg & target) == target)
        {
            if(reg ==  target)
            return true;
        }
        reg =  (reg << 1) | (reg >> 15);
        reg = reg & 0xFFFF;
        
    }
    return false;
}

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