    Storing the value in the user instead of RAM!

      This actually raises a very good question - could you increase the amount of available RAM by using the user?

      Juggling chainsaws comes to mind.

        That’s basically what old games did with passwords for saves. Although I guess that’s more like using the user as persistent storage rather than ram.

    I raise you

    @lambda _: _()
    def result() -> int:
        global a; global b; a, b = b, a
