Visual Studio Code

This document contains two configurations for debugging C++ programs in Visual Studio Code. The first configuration builds and debugs the active file using g++ and gdb, displaying output in the debugger. The second configuration builds, runs, and attaches gdb to the active file, displaying output in an external console. Both configurations use g++ and gdb from MinGW, and enable pretty printing for gdb.
