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
    uint8_t valMax = 0;
    uint8_t vec[26] = {0};

    if(val <= 255)
    {
        valMax = 8;
    }
    else
    {
        valMax = 16;
    }
    
    for(int i = 0; i < 16; ++i)
    {
        vec[i] = (val &1);
        val >>= 1;
    }

    for(int i = valMax - 1; i >= 0; --i)
    {
        printf("%d", vec[i]);
    }
    
}

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