I just wanted to know what would happen if you abuse the CharStack class by pop()ing more characters than you push()? Would it be an error of out of exception or something else.

[CODE]void SubGen(char* s) { //rearrange s ... for(int i=0;i<strlen(s);i++) { for(int j=i+1;j<strlen(s);j++) { if(s[i]==s[j]) { char temp=s[i+1]; s[i+1]=s[j]; s[j]=temp; } } } //s arranged.... Sub[0][0].push_back(s[0]); for(int i=1;i<strlen(s);i++) { if(s[i]==s[i-1]) { vector<string> temp; for(int j=i-1;j<Sub.size();j++) { for(int p=0;p<Sub[j].size();p++) { temp.push_back(Sub[j][p]); } } for(int j=0;j<temp.size();j++) { temp[j].push_back(s[i]); } Sub.push_back(temp); } else { …

I've been coding in c++ for a while now, and I use string variables quite a lot. One day, I stumbled upon a char* which can also be used to "store" a string of characters, and it's been bothering me ever since that I don't really know what a string …
