String reverse program throws exception

// ExampleCodes.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.

char* stringReverse(char* s)

    char temp, *p,*q;    
    q = s;    
    while( *(++q));    
    for( p = s; p &lt; --q; p++)    
    {    
        temp = *p;    
        *p = *q;     
        *q = temp;    
    }    
    return s;

You can't modify constant string literals.

stringReverse("StringReverse");

You could use a character array instead:

char str[] = "StringReverse";

---

String literals, like "StringReverse", are not allowed to be modified in C. Use an array:

char str[] = "StringReverse";
stringReverse(str);

Note that your stringReverse() function has undefined behaviour if you feed it a zero-length string.

---

You never allocated any memory for p. You can try p = new char[sizeof(s)];

---

Perhaps you should write something like this:

// in - string to reverse
// out - buffer for reversed string
// l - size of in

StringReverse(char* in, char* out, int l) {
  for (int i=0;i<l;i++) {
    out[l-(i+1)] = in[i];
  }
}

*There is very very little to no speed difference between [] and *(p++) / *(p--)

Well I was going to clean up the awful source in the OP but instead I'll just post a cleaner version:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

void reverse_string(char *s)
{
    char *q = s + strlen(s);
    for (char *p = s; p < --q; p++)
    {
        char temp = *p;
        *p = *q;
        *q = temp;
    }
}

int main()
{
    char s[] = "StringReverse";
    reverse_string(s);
    puts(s);
    return 0;
}

I hope for your sake Amit that you're still a student.

This is actually pure C, so learn from and awe at its performance but don't start writing C++ like this.
