  • Guest, before posting your code please take these rules into consideration:
    • It is required to use our BBCode feature to display your code. While within the editor click < / > or >_ and place your code within the BB Code prompt. This helps others with finding a solution by making it easier to read and easier to copy.
    • You can also use markdown to share your code. When using markdown your code will be automatically converted to BBCode. For help with markdown check out the markdown guide.
    • Don't share a wall of code. All we want is the problem area, the code related to your issue.

    GIF shows where to locate </> in the thread and or post editor toolbar.

Why does this cause a seg fault?

According to my IDE (CodeBlocks), this bit of code causes a seg fault. I'm trying to fix this but I don't even know why this causes a seg fault so an explanation would be helpful.

```
unsigned char* pixel_offset = data + (j + width * i) * byte_per_pixel;
unsigned char y = pixel_offset[0];
```
