Answer / mrx
In assembly language you could use "xchg" instruction witch
swaps the two variables in one instruction.
/* swaps %dest <-> %source */
xchg %dest, %source
/* inline assambly example for C language */
void swap(int register *x, register int *y)
{
asm("xchg %0, %1;" \
: "=r"(*x), "=r"(*y)
: "0"(*x), "1"(*y)
);
}
This is the fastest method you can achieve in hand
optimization. I think C compiler will do the same trick if
possible.

---------------------
a=a*b
b=a/b
a=a/b
---------------------
a=a+b
b=a-b
a=a-b
----------------------
a = a Xor b
b= a Xor b
a= a Xor b
----------------------

a[12]=name
b[20]=name
Here the size 12 & 25 has no effect hence we can change
the size
a[]=name
b[]=name

Answer / poojamnagal
Num1 = 5
Num2 = 7
Num1 = 5+7 = 12
Num2 = 12- 7 = 5
Num1 = 12-5 = 7
So, Now Num1 = 7
Num2 = 5
