Question

For some reason, whenever I run this program it exits at permute(permutater, length, lenth); . This doesn’t happen whenever I comment out the line and the function doesn’t even run. Any help?

First thing I noticed – you’re not initializing the index variable hor.

int permute(string permutater,int length,int lenth)
{
    int hor,hor2,marker;
    cout << length/lenth;
    for (marker=0;marker !=(length/lenth);marker++)
        {
            hor2 = permutater[hor];     // <== hor is not initialized
            permutater[hor] = permutater[hor-1];
            permutater[hor] = hor2;
            hor--;
            cout << permutater;
        }

}
