That would only work if the variable were an integer. If I remember correctly, the variable type was unspecified. ;-)

Your first instinct, make a copy and then reassign the

I agree that using xor isn't a very straightforward solution, but I do
like to look for creative, clever solutions:

$foo = $foo + $bar;
$bar = $foo - $bar;
$foo = $foo - $bar;

By the way, I'm hiring. :-)
