GDB

GDB (GNU Debugger) is a command-line debugger that lets a programmer run a C program under its control, set breakpoints to pause execution at specific lines, inspect and modify variable values, and step through code one line or instruction at a time. It works with binaries compiled with debugging information, typically added using the -g compiler flag. GDB is the standard debugger on most Linux systems and supports many other languages beyond C.
