Rinku, First you need to figure out where it happened. When you build your program, add -g to the compiler options if it's not already there. That causes it to generate debugging information. When your program crashes it should create a core file. That file should either be named "core", or "core.nnnn", where "nnnn" is replaced with the process ID of the program that crashed, for example, "core.1234". You can use the GNU debugger "gdb" to examine the stack and see what line of code your program crashed on. For example, if your program is named my_prog, and your core file is just "core", you can open the core file in gdb like this: gdb my_prog core Then, you can look at the stack trace by typing "where" at the prompt. Look at the first line of the output and see if it tells you what line of your source code the error occurred on, and go back and see if you can see anything wrong with that line of code. Good luck!
