C Program to Swap Two Numbers using Pointers

#include<stdio.h>

    printf("\n\nThe values before swapping are: a = %d     b = %d", a, b);

    ptra = &a;    // to store the location of a
    ptrb = &b;    // to store the location of b

    temp = *ptra;   // temp stores the value at location ptra
    *ptra = *ptrb;  // assigning value at location  ptrb to ptra
    *ptrb = temp;   // assign value of themp to  the variable at location ptrb
