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 evenBits = 0;
    for(int i = 0; i<16; i++){
        evenBits += (reg&(1<<(2*i)))>>i;
    }
    return evenBits;
}

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