Print Binary Representation of an 8-bit or 16-bit Value

Code

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

void print_binary(uint16_t val) {
    
    if(val<=255)
    {
        for(int i=0;i<8;i++)
        {
            if((val<<i)&0x80)
            {
                printf("1");
            }

            else
            {
                printf("0");
            }
        }
    }

    else
    {
        for(int i=0;i<16;i++)
        {
            if((val<<i)&0x8000)
            {
                printf("1");
            }

            else
            {
                printf("0");
            }
        }
    }
}

int main() {
    uint16_t val;
    scanf("%hu", &val);
    print_binary(val);
    return 0;
}
