From the lesson: Python Variables and Data Types: A Practical Introduction

Imagine you're shipping a package. You fill out a label that asks for the weight. You write "heavy" instead of a number. The shipping system crashes - it can't calculate a price from the word "heavy."

Read the lesson

Two variables are given: a = 10 and b = 20. Swap their values without using a temporary variable, then print both.

Expected output:

a = 20
b = 10

a = 10

b = 20

# Swap a and b without a temp variable

print(f"a = {a}")

print(f"b = {b}")
