Arrays or Vectors?

I have seen a lot of debate on wheather to use arrays or vectors for passing arrays in functions. I have a simple program here that does not quite seem to work properly as what I intended. The goal is to take the arrays from f1() and f2() and pass all the elements to the main where the elements are added togethor. I get a "segmentation fault" error.

How would I use vectors as an alternate to arrays?

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;

double f1(int a);
double f2(int b);

int main()
{
	int a1, b1;
	double numTot[6];

	f1(a1);
	f2(b1);

	// sum of 2 arrays element by element
	for(int k=0; k<=5; k++)
	{
		numTot[k] = f1(a1) + f2(b1);
		cout << "numTot[" << k << "]: " <<  numTot[k] << endl;
	}
	return 0;
}

double f1(int a2)
{
	double num1[6];

	// place 6 numbers in array num1
	for(int t=0; t<=5; t++)
	{
		num1[t] = t+1.0;
		cout << "num1[" << t << "]: " << num1[t] << endl;
	}
	return num1[a2];
}

double f2(int b2)
{
	double num2[6];

	// place 6 numbers in array num2
	for(int j=0; j<=5; j++)
	{
		num2[j] = j+2.0;
		cout << "num2[" << j << "]: " <<  num2[j] << endl;
	}
	return num2[b2];
}

Thanks if anyone can clarify this.
