The demo programs leave out all error checking for simplicity.  You
have to take care of that by yourself.

I strongly suggest that you get acquainted with (a) compiling and
linking in general, and (b) how to use a debugger like `gdb' or a GUI
front-end to it to identify the source code location where the program
crashed.

However, this mailing list is not the right place to do that, sorry.
