Set Multiple Bits in 8-bit Register

Code

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

uint8_t set_range(uint8_t reg, uint8_t start, uint8_t end) {
    // Your code here
    uint8_t n = (1 << (end + 1)) - 1 ;
    n = n & ~((1 << (start)) - 1) ;
    return (reg | n);
}

int main() {
    uint8_t reg, start, end;
    scanf("%hhu %hhu %hhu", &reg, &start, &end);
    printf("%u", set_range(reg, start, end));
    return 0;
}
