This actually results in (2, 1), which is expected; you assign 1 to a
and 2 to b and then swap the values.

The assignments happen from left to right. First, (2,3) is assigned to
(x,y), which has the effect of assigning 2 to x and then 3 to y. Next,
(2,3) is assigned to (y,x), whas the effect of assigning 2 to y and
then 3 to x, overwriting the previous assignments. Then when you do
the print, x has the value 3, and y has the value 2.
