You inadvertently drew a pentagram on your screen and thereby summoned
The Lord of Vague Usenet Postings, causing your error. That's just a
guess, however. Another guess is that LAB2, whatever the heck it was,
involved pointers or memory allocation, and that you messed it up.
"Segmentati on fault" means that you did something wrong, but nothing
more can be gleaned from it without looking at your code. If you post
it, someone may be kind enough to help you.

Write the smallest similar program that compiles
and gives the same runtime error. Then post the code.

It means you made a mistake in your program. The fix is to stop writing
bad code. Without further information I cannot be more specific.

What a guess :)
Do the statistics say so that it's most likely to be an invalid pointer?

Yes. The statistics show that 100% of segmentation faults are caused by
derefencing an invalid pointer.

Your example involves dereferencing an invalid pointer.

Really? At which point, and for what reason, does the pointer become
invalid?

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to make the following code running properly, but I can't get

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
