Keep Only the Highest Set Bit

Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

// Complete the function
uint16_t highest_set_bit(uint16_t reg) 
{
    uint16_t result=0;

    while(reg>0)
    {
        result=reg;
        reg=reg&(reg-1);
    }
    // Your logic here
    return result;
}

int main() {
    uint16_t reg;
    scanf("%hu", &reg);

    uint16_t result = highest_set_bit(reg);
    printf("%hu", result);
    return 0;
}
