Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    if(pos)
    return reg = ((reg & (0xF0))>>4);
    else
    return reg = reg & (0x0F);
}

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