I assume you are using *nix os, so if you get a core dump then run gdb or another debugger that will tell you where the problem is assuming you compile your program for debug.

You have 2 questionable sections.

All those strings are defined at least twice. You should make a master list of the strings and use when you need one, use an index into the master list array.

By carefully designing the list, you may (not guaranteed) be able to make your switch much shorter by combining cases and using the index rather than the strings themselves.

Also, read this about formatting. It's a good try, but much to wide.

You need a header file for all these string return type and data type. Just include :

# include <string>
