Answer 1

The swap ensures that a >= b, so I'd say the condition in your loop is incorrect, and should be x >= b.

Answer 2

for(x = a; x >= b; x--)

Answer 3

what are you trying to achieve?

actually the loop is never executed, as if a<b you swap var (so now b<=a) and loop check if x (initialized with a) is <=b... to run...
