A Software Developer was asked
Q. What is the volatile keyword in programming?
Ans. 

The volatile keyword in programming is used to indicate that a variable's value can be changed unexpectedly.

  • Volatile keyword is used in multithreaded programming to prevent compiler optimizations on variables that can be changed by other threads.

  • It tells the compiler not to cache the variable's value in a register, ensuring that every access is made to the variable's memory location.

  • Commonly used in embedded syste...

Q. 

Swap Numbers Without Temporary Variable

Your task is to interchange the values of two numbers given as variables 'X' and 'Y' without using a temporary variable or any additional variable.

Explanation:

Yo...

Ans. 

Swap two numbers without using a temporary variable.

  • Use bitwise XOR operation to swap the values of X and Y without using a temporary variable.

  • The XOR operation works by flipping the bits of the numbers.

  • After swapping, X = X XOR Y and Y = X XOR Y.

  • Finally, X = X XOR Y to get the original value of Y in X.
