17. Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    if(pos==0)
    {
      reg=reg & 15; // 15=0x0f
    }
    else
    {
      reg=(reg>>4)& 0x0f;
    }
    return reg;
}

int main() {
    unsigned char reg;
    int pos;
    scanf("%hhu %d", &reg, &pos);
    printf("%d", extractNibble(reg, pos));
    return 0;
}
