This segmentation fault is generally a cause of invalid stuff happening like overflow of data, numreic floating type of data, pointers , buffer etc

You can just put some debug messages in the .c file using printf(..) and see which statement is the one causing the seg. fault. Once you get to know this, then we can fix it easily.

Let me know the piece of code which is giving the seg. fault. I can try to do something to fix it.

Thanks
