[c] simple int pointer driving me insane! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

basically, I have a function that is being passed an int pointer, int *begin let's say, and I just want to USE THE THING.
I thought that if I say wrote: int k = *begin; the * would get the actual value of begin into k, instead of the what it's pointing to, but I keep getting segmentation faults!

sorry
