interest payment obligation, only because they have
different views regarding the market, with a purpose to

e. g. if A has taken a loan on fixed rate basis but is of
the view that interest rate will fall in the near future
then he can enter into a contract with exactly opposite
view i.e. B has taken loan on flexible interest rate but is
of the view that the interest rate will go up in the near
future.

A swap is a derivative in which two counterparties agree to
exchange one stream of cash flows against another stream.
The swap agreement defines the dates when the cash flows are
to be paid and the way they are calculated. Swaps can be
used to hedge certain risks such as interest rate risk, or
to speculate on changes in the expected direction of
underlying prices.

Swap space in Linux is used when the amount of physical
memory (RAM) is full. If the system needs more memory
resources and the physical memory is full, inactive pages in
memory are moved to the swap space. While swap space can
help machines with a small amount of RAM, it should not be
considered a replacement for more RAM. Swap space is located
on hard drives, which have a slower access time than
physical memory.
