Error occurs when use G++ -o : source files deleted from directory. I noticed after i started compiling a few times that after i would compile once and get a few error messages when i compiled again to just confirm the messages it would say that there is no file by that name. Also it would not only delete but change my source code to mangled ASCII characters which mean nothing. Many forums suggested that a Makefile would be the culprit however the problem resolved itself quite quickly. however i do not know how it was resolved or what caused it.

strcpy() throws strange error. crashes windows compiler when run. Solved : the issue occurred with the use of sizeof() instead of strlen() when using the malloc function. when allocating the memory for the var that will hold the original string passed to the edit function use the strlen() function instead of sizeof otherwise your application could crash. Many examples of the malloc functions use the sizeof()function however I found this to be problematic within this application.
