I dont think it is possible to create your own operators in C++.

You need to make a swap function, hun. You really can't create your own operators, I don't believe.

Code:

---

void swap(int *val1,int *val2){
int temp=*val1;
*val1=*val2;
*val2=temp;
}

int main(){
int x=5; int y=2;
swap(&x,&y);
cout << "X = "<<x<<" and Y= "<<y<<endl;
return 0;
}

---

Or you can use the std::swap found in <algorithm>
