debug (dbx and gdb)

The purpose of a debugger is to allow you to see what is going on inside another program while it executes or what another program was doing at the moment it crashed.

dbx is a debugger for cc, acc, CC, pc (pascal), f77 (fortran) and assembly programs. It provides a controlled environment for their execution. dbx accepts the same commands as debugger, but uses a standard terminal (tty) interface. See man dbx for more info.

gdb is the GNU debugger for gcc and g++.
