In simple words swapping is nothing but exchanging the values stored in two variables. Consider x = 7 and y = 3 . And in the code if you exchange the value of x with y and y with x to get x =3 and y = 7 , you have sone swapping!

U have at least two value, u wanna change the value. for example: it is given: int x = 1; int y = 5; and you want int x= 5; int y =1; it is swap, change the value; in order to chane , u need temporarily variable, like temp. int temp = x; // here store x x = y; // you can store in x the value of y y = temp // because temp has the value of x
