SubhanUllah Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 For numbers its pretty easy. Addition is reversible. For other types of data, not to much: #include <cstdio> int main() { int a = 123; int b = 44; float c = -2.234; float d = 4.456; printf("%-18s %11s %14s\n"," ","a <-> b","c <-> d"); printf("%-15s %7d\t%7d\t%7.3f\t%7.3f\n","Starting values",a,b,c,d); a = a + b; // a has both numbers c = c + d; // c now is both numbers printf("%-15s %7d\t%7d\t%7.3f\t%7.3f\n","a = a + b",a,b,c,d); b = a - b; // b now has a d = c - d; // d now has c printf("%-15s %7d\t%7d\t%7.3f\t%7.3f\n","b = a - b",a,b,c,d); a = a - b; // a now has b c = c - d; // c now had d printf("%-15s %7d\t%7d\t%7.3f\t%7.3f\n","a = a - b",a,b,c,d); } Output: a <-> b c <-> d Starting values 123 44 -2.234 4.456 a = a + b 167 44 2.222 4.456 b = a - b 167 123 2.222 -2.234 a = a - b 44 123 4.456 -2.234 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
