Swapping integers in Python
(lemmy.world)
a = a ^ b
b = a ^ b
a = a ^ bSo you are asking the user to do it
Version 3 is disgusting.
That's like the canonical "swap two pointers" trick
Using an organic processor
I raise you
@lambda _: _()
def result() -> int:
global a; global b; a, b = b, a

Storing the value in the user instead of RAM!
This actually raises a very good question - could you increase the amount of available RAM by using the user?
Juggling chainsaws comes to mind.
Never used Python but that's hilarious.
