It could be one of several things like interchanging the values of two variables. The term is also sometimes used when data is written by the OS from memory into disk.

I never heard of something special like swapping in C, but maybe you mean swapping of two values? Swapping values of a and b could look like this: int a = 10; int b = 20; int c; c = a; a = b; b = c; // a == 20, b == 10
