The original post was presumably in response to this:
"Exercise 4.1: Write an if statement which will swap the values of
variables A and B if necessary so that the smaller value ends up in
A and the larger value ends up in B."
The closing date for this was the 3rd of November; the question had
been made available at least 2 weeks earlier.
A similar question was also set 2 weeks prior to that:
"Exercise 2.6: Write a set of assignment statements which will swap
the values of two variables called A and B."
Presumably he didn't manage to solve that, or hadn't noticed the
similarity... :-)
