Set Specific Bits in a 32-bit Register

Code

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

uint32_t set_bits(uint32_t reg, uint8_t pos, uint8_t len) {
   while (len > 0) {
        len--; // Move to the specific bit index
        // Use bitwise OR (|) to set the bit at (pos + len)
        reg = reg | (1 << (pos + len));
    }
    return reg;
}

int main() {
    uint32_t reg;
    uint8_t pos, len;
    scanf("%u %hhu %hhu", &reg, &pos, &len);
    printf("%u", set_bits(reg, pos, len));
    return 0;
}
