What does the error "Null Pointer Assignment" mean ? what causes it?.

I believe it's usually caused when you have something like this:

Code:

{
  int *ptr = NULL;

  *ptr = 5;
}

Then try doing a search. Learn how to use google. And also try to be a little more specific with your questions. Such as: When did you get the error? What OS are you using? What compiler are you using? etc.
