addr2line
addr2line [options] [addresses]
Translate hexadecimal program addresses into filenames and line
numbers for the executable given with the -e option, or a.out if -e is
not specified. If addresses are given on the command line, display
the filename and line number for each address. Otherwise, read the
addresses from standard input and display the results on standard
output (useful for use in a pipe). addr2line prints two question
marks (??) if it cannot determine a filename, and 0 if it cannot
determine the line number. addr2line is used for debugging.
Options
-b bfdname, --target=bfdname
Set the binary file format using its binary file descriptor name,
bfdname. Use the -h option for a list of supported formats for
your system.
-C, --demangle[=style]
Decode (demangle) low-level symbol names into usernames.
See the -h help output for a list of styles supported by your
compiler.
-e file, --exe=file
Specify the filename of the executable to use. The default file-
name is a.out.
-f, --functions
Display function names in addition to filenames and line
numbers.
-h, --help
Display help information and exit.
-s, --basenames
Strip directories off filenames and show only the basenames.

QuotationMarkI wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
