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 data=0b1000000000000000;
    if(reg==0)
    return 0;
    while((reg&data)==0){
    data>>=1; }
    return data;
}

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

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