Why is this error Occurring

[Angela]

Most of us who run programs in C and C++ would have definitely seen the word core dump at least few times. I am beginning my programming in C and I saw this core dump message quite a few times. What is actually this core dump refers to and what must be done to resolve this error?

[Adrian]

Core dump occurs when a user or a programmer tires to access illegal area of memory or memory that is not allowed to be accessed. When such a memory area is accessed and when it is outputted by programmer in their program then core dump occurs. For resolving this you have to access the core dump outputted and then based on the message given in these core dump actions has to be taken for resolving. As each message would be different and each resolution handling for the same would be different.
