Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    // Write your code here
    if (pos){
        reg=(reg>>4);

    }
    else{
        reg&=~(0xF<<4);
    }
    return reg;
}

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

Solving Approach

Just reset the upper nibble if pos=0 and right shift by 4 for pos=1
