Answer / vishal gupta
well, use math:
x=5;
y=7;
x = x * y;
y = x / y;
x = x / y;
And the numbers have been swapped without the use of an
extra variable. I hope it helped.

Answer / guest
another way is using bitwise XOR (^).
a=9; //a=1001
b=5; //b=0101
a=a^b; //a=1100
b=a^b; //b=1001
a=b^a; //a=0101

Answer / a.g.dhivyalakshmi
//swaping of 2 numbers without using temp variable
//a=5 & b=6
a=a+b; //a=30
b=a-b; //b=5
a=a-b; //a=6
//Thus two numbers are swapped
// or
//a=5 & b=6
a=a*b; //a=30
b=a/b; //b=5
a=a/b; //a=6
//Thus two numbers are swapped

Answer / raja
if a=10& b=20
a=a+b //a=30
b=a-b //b=10
a=a-b //a=20
finally we got a=20,b=10
