Extract Even Bits Only from 32-bit Register

Code

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

uint32_t extract_even_bits(uint32_t reg) {
    // Your code here
    uint32_t results = 0;
    int pos = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < 32; i +=2){
        int bits = (reg >> i) & 1;
        results |= (bits << pos);
        pos++;
    }
    return results;
}

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