PHP Program to Swap Two Numbers

In programming, there are two different techniques to swap any two numbers in a variable, they are

  • Swap using Temporary Variable
  • Swap without using Temporary Variable

Swap using Temporary Variable

In the following example, we will swap two numbers (25 and 50) using a temporary variable (temp).

Example

PHP Compiler
<?php $num1 = 25; $num2 = 50; $temp = 0; $temp = $num1; $num1 = $num2; $num2 = $temp; echo "After swapping..."; echo "<br> num1 = $num1"; echo "<br> num2 = $num2"; ?>

Output

After swapping... num1 = 50 num2 = 25

Swap without using Temporary Variable

In the following example, we will swap two numbers (25 and 50) without using a temporary variable.

Example

PHP Compiler
<?php $num1 = 25; $num2 = 50; $num1 = $num1 - $num2; $num2 = $num1 + $num2; $num1 = $num2 - $num1; echo "After swapping..."; echo "<br> num1 = $num1"; echo "<br> num2 = $num2"; ?>

Output

After swapping... num1 = 50 num2 = 25
