Hello all,

How do I "skip over" some iterations of a loop?
I don't want to press 'continue' 50000 times.

Check the GDB manual, (gdb)Continuing and Stepping.  You will probobly
want to use the `until' command, or just `continue 50000' depending
one what you wish to do.

Happy hacking.

You can set an "ignore count" on a breakpoint.  See the below, and
search for "ignore".
