Prokopios Poulimenos A method can not return two values, so I would use an array for the two numbers: https://code.sololearn.com/cb2en41ZAjw7/?ref=app

Solution 1 : Use a third variable and do the following : temp = x; x = y; y = temp; -- ----------------------- Solution 2 : Without temporary variable x = x + y; y = x - y; x = x - y; -- ----------------------- Solution 3 : With bitwise operator x = x ^ y; y = x ^ y; x = x ^ y;

Prokopios Poulimenos: solution 1 is correct solution 2 may cause operator overflow (it's computer algebra, not math - range is limited) and x,y might be objects? solution 3 - no idea why this should work (e.g. x = 1 and y = 0) and depends on number encoding, but what if y,x are no numbers?
