Extract the Nibble from an 8-bit Register

Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char extractNibble(unsigned char reg, int pos) {
    // Write your code here
    pos = (pos == 1) ? 4 : 0;
    unsigned char mask = 0b1111 << pos;
    reg &= mask;
    reg = reg >> pos;
    return reg;
}

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