Changing pieces on board

I am a newbie and wanted to ask how I switch my pieces. I have seen it done but don't know how to do it.  For example, I have seen the queen switch places with the king.

Thanks.  Much appreciated.

You may be talking about castling, where the rook and king both move on the same turn.
