You should know the majority of SIGSEGVs are pointer that are either
uninitialised (your case) or initialised somewhere in space....

those are pointers. they point. they don't hold anything. you should
make them point at something useful, like pointer=&variable, or allocate
some memory to them:

point=malloc(sizeof(int));
infr=malloc(sizeof(int));
temp=malloc(sizeof(int));

add this and you should be fine. Have a nice day.
