I'm not an expert, but compiler puts "This is the sentence from here"
into read only memory and then you are trying to modify it, so your OS
terminates your program, it is not allowed to modify read only memory
So the quick fix:
char text[sizeof("This is the sentence from here")];
strcpy(text, "This is the sentence from here");
char *find="from";
