Preventing vehicle accident caused by intentional misbehavior

A method () of editing program code is proposed. The program code consists of main instructions written in a high-level language. Typically, the program code further includes one or more sets of service instructions, which are not directly connected to a desired algorithm (such as tracing instructions for debugging purposes, performance measuring instructions, and the like). In the solution of the invention, each set of service instructions is enclosed (-) between a pair of predefined comments defining a starting tag and an ending tag. An editor of the program code is provided with commands for automatically disabling () the service instructions (converting them into corresponding comments); at the same time, the disabled instructions are condensed () on the monitor. Additional commands are available for automatically enabling () and restoring () the service instructions.
