Answer / vignesh1988i

as for i know their are two different logics for the
swapping techinque.... swapping is a type of techinque used
for interchanging the two varibles in the operating
memory....
1) using only variables
2) using EX-OR operator '^'
first logic only know.
void main()
{
int a,b;
printf("enter the a&b");

Answer / alok bajpai

You can swap two Numbers without using temporary variable
with the help of EX-OR operator;

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
int a,b;
clrscr();
printf("Enter the first No.:");
scanf("%d",&a);
printf("Enter the second No.:");
scanf("%d",&b);
a^=b^=a^=b;
printf("%d %d",a,b);
getch();
}
