Segmentation fault

#1

Sir I can’t understand why am getting a Segmentation fault

@debojyoti.koley.dk this approach will not work.

  1. Make an array of type pair<string, int>
  2. Take inputs for name and salary and store it in the above array
  3. Sort the array

@Ishitagambhir Thank you, ma’am. But can you please tell me why am getting Segmentation fault? Am not getting that. I got it that there is problem in my approach but not able to find the error in code.

@debojyoti.koley.dk segmentation fault comes when you try to access unauthorized memory like an out of bound index. You are taking arr[i] as an index for arrCpy so

  1. size of arr array should be big enough for the range you are iterating
  2. the values of arr[i] should not go out of bounds

If you still have any confusion try to dry run using a pen and paper and see what memory and index is being accessed
