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

Code

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

void print_binary(uint16_t val) {
    // Your logic here
    int num_bits = (val <= 255) ? 8 : 16;
    for (int i = num_bits-1; i >= 0; i--) {
        // (val >> i) & 1 pulls the i-th bit out
        putchar(((val >> i) & 1) ? '1' : '0');
    }
}

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