Set or Clear a Specific Bit in a Register

Code

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned char modifyBit(unsigned char reg, int pos, int mode) {
    if (mode == 0) {
        unsigned char mask = ~(1 << (pos));
        reg = reg & mask;
    } else if (mode == 1) {
        unsigned char mask = (1 << (pos));
        reg = reg | mask;
    }
    return reg;
}

int main() {
    unsigned char reg;
    int pos, mode;
    scanf("%hhu %d %d", &reg, &pos, &mode);
    printf("%d", modifyBit(reg, pos, mode));
    return 0;
}
