You know Victor, I was wondering if there was a nice way to do it with a
template. Okay, so let's say I use your template and do this:

class Test
{
char str[10];
void swap( Test &rhs )
{
strswap( str, rhs.str );
}
};

I am not very familiar with that syntax. You are using 's' as a value,
rather than a type. But since the size of the array is known at
compile-time, I presume then that the compiler is able to interpret the
value of 's' based on the argument(s) passed to it? If so, that's pretty
cool!
