How to debug gcc in Linux

[ern]

I'm using "gcc" in Linux. I'm kind of new to this... is there a way to
step through the code in debugger mode using this tool? Any debugging
tools for C right out of the box in Linux (RedHat)? Thanks.

Your question is about a particular implementation, not about the C
language, so it would have been better to ask it in gnu.gcc.help,
comp.unix.programmer, or one of the Linux groups.

Having said that:

info gdb

If you have any questions beyond that, try one of the above groups
(unless you have a question about the C language, in which case this
is the right place).
