At first glance 'cse' 'mech' and 'eee' Record pointers are not initialized (they do not default to NULL), and the 'add' function tries to read them

hmm, your code doesn't give me a segmentation fault, the output says that it didn't the department and then finds that department and asks a bunch of appropriate input and then uhh... it does nothing. here was my input: 1 cse rellot 45 35 357587 2 1 cse rishi 21 45 357586 2

Rellot's screwdriver yeah it just gets the input and stores it. It gave me segmentation fault because of the reason that I didn't initialize the pointers to NULL and tried to access the random memory segment they were pointing to, that resulted in error. Thank you for helping Angelo and @Rellot's screwdriver
