Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    unsigned char val = 0x0F;
    if(!pos){
        reg &= (val);
    }
    else{
        reg &= ~(val);
        reg = reg>>4;
    }
    return reg;
}

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