I am coding a DOS console application. When I compile and run the program it gets halfway through before quitting out. It quits out when trying to invoke a function. When I deug the program it says : "Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault"
Does anyone know how I would go about fixing this? Is it a compiler error or a mistake I made. If it helps I am using Dev C++. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It is probably a code problem. Are you using new/delete or malloc/free?
Could you post your code, and tell us the function that is causing you problems.
btw nice username, you a sabres fan?
Yeah its probably the code, im still fairly new to this. Its 250 lines long so I posted the code here http://www.sfm-clan.0catch.com/triviagame.txt instead on the mb. The fault (what exactly is a sigsegv, segmentation fault nyways?) seems to occur as soon as it gets to function check. At first I thought it was the random number generator I downloaded but it seems to get past that alright.
Again thanks for any help
and
Thanks, as a matter of fact I am.btw nice username, you a sabres fan?

I'm not sure if this is the only problem because I haven't got the libraries you've used, but you need to change the order of your arrays declarations; i.e. char question[50][80].
I fixed that, but that wasn't the reason it was quitting out. Thanks anyways though.
