and make one more variable say rem. Now place the modulus of the number
to rem and place rev*10+rem to rev, now divide the number with 10 and continue
until number will become 0.
Program 23 - Swap Two Numbers

num1=num2;
num2=swap;
cout<<"The value of first and second number after swapping is
\n";
cout<<"First Number = "<<num1<<"\n"<<"Second Number =
"<<num2;
getch();
}

swap two numbers without using a

temporary variable

Method 1 (Using Arithmetic Operators)

The idea is to get sum in one of the two given numbers. The numbers can then be
swapped using the sum and subtraction from sum.

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x = 10, y = 5;

// Code to swap 'x' and 'y'

x = x + y; // x now becomes 15
y = x - y; // y becomes 10
x = x - y; // x becomes 5

printf("After Swapping: x = %d, y = %d", x, y);

return 0;
}
Output:

After Swapping: x = 5, y = 10

Multiplication and division can also be used for swapping.

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x = 10, y = 5;

// Code to swap 'x' and 'y'

x = x * y; // x now becomes 50
y = x / y; // y becomes 10
x = x / y; // x becomes 5

printf("After Swapping: x = %d, y = %d", x, y);

return 0;
}

Output:

After Swapping: x = 5, y = 10

Method 2 (Using Bitwise XOR)

The bitwise XOR operator can be used to swap two variables. The XOR of two numbers
x and y returns a number which has all the bits as 1 wherever bits of x and y differ. For
example XOR of 10 (In Binary 1010) and 5 (In Binary 0101) is 1111 and XOR of 7
(0111) and 5 (0101) is (0010).

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x = 10, y = 5;

// Code to swap 'x' (1010) and 'y' (0101)

x = x ^ y; // x now becomes 15 (1111)
y = x ^ y; // y becomes 10 (1010)
x = x ^ y; // x becomes 5 (0101)

printf("After Swapping: x = %d, y = %d", x, y);

 return 0;
}

Output:

After Swapping: x = 5, y = 10

Problems with above methods

1) The multiplication and division based approach doesn work if one of the numbers is
0 as the product becomes 0 irrespective of the other number.
2) Both Arithmetic solutions may cause arithmetic overflow. If x and y are too large,
addition and multiplication may go out of integer range.
3) When we use pointers to variable and make a function swap, all of the above
methods fail when both pointers point to the same variable. Lets take a look what will
happen in this case if both are pointing to the same variable.

Program 24 - Count Positive, Negative and Zero in C++

To count the number of positive number, negative number, and zero from the

check all the numbers using for loop whether the number is 0, less than zero or
greater than 0 to count the occurrence of positive, negative and zero as shown
here in the following program.

in C++ programming, you have to first ask from the user to enter a number.

Now to check whether the entered number is a palindrome number (if reverse of
the number is equal to its original) or not a palindrome number (if reverse of the
number is not equal to its original), you have to first reverse the number and
check whether reverse is equal to original or not. If it is equal then the number is
palindrome, otherwise not palindrome number as shown here in the following
program.

To check whether any positive number is an Armstrong number or not, following

is the example:

Since 153 is equal to 1*1*1 + 5*5*5 + 3*3*3. So 153 is an Armstrong

number
Since 12 is not equal to 1*1*1 + 2*2*2. So 12 is not an Armstrong number

/* C++ Program - Check Armstrong or Not */

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()

}
if(num==n)
{
cout<<"Armstrong Number";
}
else
{
cout<<"Not Armstrong Number";
}

}
Generate Armstrong Numbers
Since if you start from 1 then the first Armstrong number will be 153. So enter the
interval which contain 153 like enter starting number as 1, 2, 3, 4...... etc. and
enter the ending number like 154, 155, 156.......etc. It is just a clue that the first
Armstrong number is 153 so to check/print, you can follow it. Generate
Armstrong number from the following C++ program, so following C++ program
illustrates it:
