Tuple assignment swap
Swap two existing variables in one destructuring assignment.
Solidity 0.8.36REPL mode
Why use this example
Use this pattern to isolate Solidity branching, looping, assignment, and function-call syntax before combining it with contract state. The entry isolates tuple assignment swap so its input, result, and state changes stay easy to compare.
Solidity to run
uint256 left = 1
uint256 right = 2
(left, right) = (right, left)
left
rightOfficial Solidity reference
Compare this focused investigation with the complete language definition in the Solidity documentation.
Destructuring assignmentsWhat to expect
The tuple assignment exchanges both values atomically, so left becomes 2 and right becomes 1.
Continue the investigation
Change a value, add another expression, or open Inspect after the run. Accepted entries remain available to the next entry, and the clean replay keeps the complete result reproducible.
