== Why is this an issue?
The sequence `foo = bar; bar = foo` looks like a failed attempt to swap the values of two variables. This code mistakenly reassigns both variables, leading to incorrect and unintended behavior. Using `std::mem::swap` ensures a correct and intended swap.
=== Code examples
==== Noncompliant code example
[source,rust,diff-id=1,diff-type=noncompliant]
----
let mut foo = 1;
let mut bar = 2;
foo = bar; // Noncompliant
bar = foo; // Noncompliant
----
==== Compliant solution
[source,rust,diff-id=1,diff-type=compliant]
----
let mut foo = 1;
let mut bar = 2;
std::mem::swap(&mut foo, &mut bar); // Compliant
