<h2 class="chapter">5 Interpreting <code>gprof</code>&rsquo;s Output</h2>
<p><code>gprof</code> can produce several different output styles, the
most important of which are described below. The simplest output
styles (file information, execution count, and function and file ordering)
are not described here, but are documented with the respective options
that trigger them.
See <a href="Output-Options.html#Output-Options">Output Options</a>.
