Extract Bit Field from 16-bit Register

Code

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

uint8_t extract_field(uint16_t reg) {
    // Your logic here
    
    reg= (reg >> 4) & 0x1F;
    return (uint8_t) reg;
}

int main() {
    uint16_t reg;
    scanf("%hx", &reg);
    printf("%u", extract_field(reg));
    return 0;
}

Solving Approach

Right shift the register to get the bits in focus then bitwise AND with 0x1F

preserve only the bits of interest
