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 new_val = 0;
    if (pos==0)
    {
        new_val = (reg&(15<<0));
    }
    else 
    {
        new_val = ((reg&(15<<4))>>4);
    }
    return new_val;
}

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