Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    // Write your code here
    unsigned char nibble_bitmask = 0xF;
    if(pos)
    {
        /* Logic for extracting Upper Nibble (Bits: [4:7] ) */
        reg = reg >> 4;
        reg &= nibble_bitmask;
    }
    else
    {
        /* Logic for extracting Lower Nibble (Bits: [0:3] ) */
        reg &= nibble_bitmask;
    }
    return reg;
}

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