21 This manual page documents briefly the __gcov__ command.
22 This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux
23 distribution (but may be used by others), because the
24 original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it
25 has documentation in the GNU Info format; see
26 below.

29 __gcov__ is a test coverage program. Use it in concert
30 with GNU CC to analyze your programs to help create more
31 efficient, faster running code. You can use gcov as a
32 profiling tool to help discover where your optimization
33 efforts will best affect your code. You can also use gcov
34 along with the other profiling tool, __gprof__ , to
35 assess which parts of your code use the greatest amount of
36 computing time.
