Infix to Postfix - c

Question

I am trying to create a program to convert an infix expression to post fix and evaluate it using a stack. The three files are below. When I run the code I get a segmentation fault. The debugger in Xcode says that it occurs between the push and the two pop calls in the middle file in the evaluate_postfix function. Can anyone help me with why this is seg faulting?

}
void push(stack *s, int val)
{
node* newPtr = (node*) malloc(sizeof(node));
newPtr->data = val;
newPtr->next = s->stack;
s->stack = newPtr;
s->size++;
}
void pop(stack *s)
{
node* newPtr = NULL;
node* tempPtr = NULL;
tempPtr = s->stack;

free(tempPtr);

Each call to strtok() that doesn't contain a NULL pointer as its first argument resets the internal pointer of the strtok() function to the beginning of the string.
At the beginning of the loop in your int evaluate_postfix(char* postfix); function, you call
token = strtok(postfix, " ");
Which means that at the beginning of the loop, token ALWAYS pointers to the first non-space character at the beginning of postfix. So each loop it would see an operator, and try to pop() two values from the stack. But your stack would quickly deplete, and the stack will begin to point to garbage data (s->size < 0).
token = strtok(postfix, " ");
for(i = 0; i < s->size ; i++)
{
....
token = strtok(NULL, " ");
}
Should fix your issue.
