I think it prints: toHow too, the swap function swaps the elements in the array

Haha, this question is like a linguistic version of 'the chicken or the egg'. I'm just gonna try to swap my brain with the compiler and see what happens.

This is a tricky one! I'm gonna guess C) It prints: Ht. Maybe the swap() function somehow cuts the strings in half or something. Who knows?

I think the answer is A) It prints: Hoto. The swap() function should reverse the order of the strings in the array.

The correct answer is B) It prints: toHow. The swap() function swaps the contents of the string objects s1[0] and s1[1], so the output should be 'toHow'.
