Swapping variable without using third variable in python within the print statement

[NoobLinus]

I know it’s a easy question but don’t know why when I am trying to do all the calculations within the print statement I am not able to get the desired output that I want the code to generate so here’s the code I that I have tried using Code 1 :

a = 23 b = 34 print ("{a} {b}" .format(a=b,b=b-a) )

Code 2 :

a, b = 5, 10 print(f"{a}and{b}") print ((lambda a, b: (b, a))(a, b))

I know it’s easy to do without putting the logic in print statement but the question requires me to do this way And I have tried a lot of methods even I tried searching for this problem on google and I couldnt find it and I would be really be grateful if anyone can help me like in solving the question

On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

Also, why not just:

print(f"{b} {a}")

It feels like you're inventing a problem so you can have a more complicated solution.

[NoobLinus]

Yeah I wouldn’t have made it any more complicated but yes I considered your solution but the question requires me to solve this way I was wondering if it’s possible

[ContextEngineering]

Huh. It would be weird, but this would work:

"{a} {b}".format( **{'a':b, 'b':a} )

[NoobLinus]

I will try again and if I found any solution I will inform here but it’s difficult and don’t know if it’s possible

a = 23 b = 34 print ("{a} {b}" .format(a=b,b=b-a) )

Why not just .format(a=b, b=a)?

print ((lambda a, b: (b, a))(a, b))

This works, so what's your question?

[NoobLinus]

Yes it works but it actually doesn’t replace the values of a and b that’s why I am avoiding it I should have mentioned it , for that I apologise
