Without seeing the program, it is difficult to say. You tried to access memory you were not allowed to so the program crashed. It could be a uninitialize variable, a deference of a null pointer, an array access out of bounds overwriting data it shouldn't.

These are the worst types of problems to find. If you add debugging statements, it could help. Thing like the following to help you figure out where and why. cout<<"entering function x"<<endl; cout<<"while loop body x="<<x<<endl;
