Mysterious Seg. Fault........Spoj ARITH

The following program attempts to work as a calculator for huge inputs.

PROBLEM STATEMENT: http://www.spoj.com/problems/ARITH/

It's working perfectly on IDE for all imaginable cases.

IDE URL: http://ideone.com/lP3JZe

On SPOJ it has started giving SIGSEGV.
I know it may be difficult to read and understand the whole code, but any idea about where this fault may be arising from will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi there,

Welcome to the forums :)

My advice:

- wrap the code in code tags: [code] code here [/code]
- place debug statements in the program that trace all steps, then you have an idea at least after which step the segfault occurs.
- Have a look at this article: http://cplusplus.com/articles/iwTbqMoL/

Hope that helps.

All the best,
NwN
global variables, goto, obnoxious looking comments, a near complete lack of whitespace, poorly named variables, most of the work done in a monolithic function and a two letter macro that hides function calls.

No wonder you can't debug it?
@NwN: Got the error. Was a slight typo. Thanks anyways.

@cire: i am a noob presently, hence the apparently abhorrent code. Any documentation/reference on writing better, easier to debug code would be most welcome. Thanks.
