Extract Even Bits Only from 32-bit Register

Code

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

uint32_t extract_even_bits(uint32_t reg) {
    uint32_t new_reg = 0;
    for (int8_t i = 0; i < 32; i+=2)
    {
        if ((reg>>i)&1){
            new_reg |= (1U<<(i/2));
        }
    }
    return new_reg;
}

int main() {
    uint32_t reg;
    scanf("%u", &reg);
    printf("%u", extract_even_bits(reg));
    return 0;
}
