getting segmentation fault in a small c program

Question

i wrote a small prog :

  1 #include  
  2 main(){  
  3         char* str = \"string\";  
  4         *str = \'k\';  
  5         printf(\"str         


        

Answer 1

char* str = "string";

This puts the string in read-only memory. It is undefined behavior (usually unpleasant behavior) when you try to modify it with the next line. Try something like

char str[] = "string";

instead.
