Simple challenge: Read a byte, swap bit 7 with 0, 6 with 1, 5 with 2 and 4 with 3 and then output the byte. For example the byte 0b1001'1100 would turn into 0b0011'1001.

Rules:

• Shortest code wins
• A byte has at least 8 bit. If it makes things easier, you can use a bigger byte size. The size should be independent of the value.
• Reverse at least 1 byte. If it makes it easier, you can reverse more.
• The byte to reverse is the only required input. But if it makes it easier, a input for the byte size and a input for the number of bytes to reverse can be required.
• You can choose the input and output format, but both have to be the same.
• If you choose a input format where multiple digits may needed, in a form which your language doesn't give a fixed size, for example a ASCII string or a list, then you have to support inputs that don't have leading 0s and inputs that do have leading 0s. For example, if you choose to use a binary number written in ASCII, the input maybe only "1010" (or "0b1010" if you prefer) and you would have to output either "01010000" or "1010000" (assuming you don't want to use digit separators nor a prefix and use 8 bit bytes).
