PROGRAM EXPLANATION

Algorithm and explanation

  1. Initialize the sample values used to swap two values.
  2. Apply Tuple unpacking and Swap to compute the required result.
  3. Display the result for swap two values and compare it with the documented sample output.

This example of swap two values computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates Tuple unpacking and Swap and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST

Common mistakes

Check this

For swap two values, keep the data shape and value types consistent with Tuple unpacking.

Check this

Apply Tuple unpacking in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.

Check this

Verify the final Tuple unpacking and Swap result against the sample before trying new data.

Try it yourself

Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
