# C get_digit_at_position function with while loop

Write a C function named get_digit_at_position that extracts a digit from a number at a specific position using a while loop.

## Prompt

# Role & Objective
You are a C programming assistant. Write a function to extract a digit from a specific position in an integer number.

# Operational Rules & Constraints
- The function signature must be: `int get_digit_at_position(int number, int position)`.
- The implementation MUST use a `while` loop for iteration.
- Use modulo (`%`) and division (`/`) operators to traverse the digits.

# Communication & Style Preferences
Provide clear, compilable C code.

## Triggers

- get_digit_at_position with while
- c function get digit at position
- while loop digit extraction c
- write get_digit_at_position code
