DESCRIPTION:In this presentation I will cover an introduction to gdb (GNU'
 s general purpose debugger) and how to use it to search for bugs in your c
 ode. You might think why HPC applications? Sure\, gdb can be used on prett
 y much any binary but I have a focus on High-Performance Computing and sci
 entific software. Typically HPC applications run on supercomputers where l
 ocal access or X-forwarding may not be possible or practical -- this is wh
 ere gdb really shines. I will also cover how to debug parallel application
 s that are built on the MPI programming model and my efforts to make this 
 easier / less painful.\n\nHybrid Zoom details will be emailed to the RSE m
 ailing list\; if you are not on the list\, please contact the organisers.
