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) {
        // 8 bit
        for(int i = 7; i >= 0; i--) 
            printf("%d", (val >> i) & 1);
    } else {
        // 16 bit
        for(int i = 15; i >= 0; i--) 
            printf("%d", (val >> i) & 1);
    }
}

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