Answer:

The answer to this question as follows:

Explanation:

  • In the given code an integer pointer variable "intPointer" is declared, this variable holds an integer type value, which is "500". In the next step, the pointer variable initialized a value with 10, which is illegal, because in pointer we hold the address of variable, not the value, that's why it will give segmentation fault.
  • This fault will arise when the common condition triggering crashed systems, it often linked to the main script, that Safeguards are triggered by a program, that tries to read or write an illegal place in storage.
