This is known as code obfuscation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obfuscation_(software)

In this we deliberately make the code harder to understand. It is written such to make it harder and time-consuming for any human to understand.

Similar code you can find in code golfing competitions.

There is no need to understand this from GATE point of view. But u can try if you are interested :)

Can try after GATE :)
