17. Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    //extracting lower nibble
    if(pos == 0){
        //lower nipple
        return reg & 0x0F;
    }else {
        //high nipple
        return (reg >> 4) & 0x0F;
    }

    return reg;
}

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