Runtime error!! ACM problem

[Asif_NSU]

This is (supposed to be) a soln for a ACM problem

But the program produces a runtime error.
Can anyone spot the bug?

#include<iostream>
#include<string>

#define MAX 25

using namespace std;

void print_blocks();
int return_initial(int a);//return all the blocks 
						//on top of block a to their initial pos

int track[MAX];//in which stack a block is currently stacked
int blkpos[MAX][MAX];//block stacks
int n;

int main()
{
	//Initialize Start
	cin>>n;
	for(int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
		for(int j = 0; j < n; ++j)
			blkpos[i][j] = -1;
			
	for(int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
		blkpos[i][0] = i;
		
	for(int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
		track[i] = i;
	//Initialize End
	
	string command;
	int a,b;
	while(cin>>command)			
	{
		
		if(command == "quit")
			break;
			
		if(command == "move")
		{
			
			cin>>a>>command>>b;
						
			if(track[a] == track[b])//Illegal command
				continue;
			if(command == "onto")//command == move a onto b
			{
				int pos = return_initial(a);
				blkpos[track[b]][ return_initial(b) + 1] = a;
				blkpos[track[a]][pos] = -1;
				track[a] = track[b];				
				
			}
			else//command == move a over b
			{
				
				int pos = return_initial(a);
				int i;
				for( i = 0; blkpos[track[b]][i] != -1; ++i)
					;
				blkpos[track[b]][i] = a;
				blkpos[track[a]][pos] = -1;
				track[a] = track[b];				
			}
		}
		else //command == pile
		{
			cin>>a>>command>>b;
			if(track[a] == track[b])
				continue;
			if(command == "onto") // command == pile a onto b
			{
				int pos = return_initial(b);
				int i;
				for( i = 0; blkpos[track[a]][i] != a; ++i)
					;
				int from = track[a];
				for( ; blkpos[from][i] != -1; ++i)
				{
					blkpos[track[b]][++pos] = blkpos[from][i];
					track[blkpos[from][i]] = track[b];
					blkpos[from][i] = -1;					
				}
			}
			else //command == pile a over b
			{
				int pos;
				int i;
				for(i = 0; blkpos[track[b]][i] != b; ++i)
					;
				pos = i;				
				for( i = 0; blkpos[track[a]][i] != a; ++i)
					;
				int from = track[a];
				for( ; blkpos[from][i] != -1; ++i)
				{
					blkpos[track[b]][++pos] = blkpos[from][i];
					track[blkpos[from][i]] = track[b];
					blkpos[from][i] = -1;					
				}
			}			
			
		}
		
			
	}
	
	print_blocks();
}


int return_initial(int a)
{
	
	int i;
	for(i = 0; blkpos[ track[a]][i] != a; ++i )

	return pos;
	
}

}

Have you tried running it in a debugger?
If you do a stack dump (backtrace)
it will show exactly where it bombed.

I havent used a debugger, but I think it produces runtime error depending on the input. For some input the online judge uses it produces the error, not for the input i gave to it.

Hi Asif, I don't know if you still need this, but I think the cause of runtime error is the size of MAX. What if the given input for 'n' is greater than 25??? Then you'll get a Run-time Error. (but i'm not sure, obviously if it is mentioned in problem that the input will be less than 25 than this is NOT the cause of the problem)
