How to install gdb on Arch Linux

Question

How do I install the GNU Debugger (gdb) on Arch Linux? I've checked that I don't already have gdb installed by running this command:

gdb -help

I've tried this:

sudo apt-get install gdb

but it's not working.

-1 because the question doesn't show research effort.

Arch Linux uses different package management. Use the below command format.

pacman -S package_name1 package_name2

Or run man pacman to learn more about pacman.
