Extract Bit Field from 16-bit Register

Code

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

uint8_t extract_field(uint16_t reg) {
    // Your logic here
    uint16_t mask = 0x00;
    //used to extract data from 4 to 8
    mask = (reg & ((1 << 5) - 1) << 4);
    return mask >> 4;
}

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