Abstract

A method of evaluating a program in which a second program is inserted into an instruction processing of a first program, includes the steps of: latching an address value of a stack pointer when executing an instruction for calling the second program; comparing the address value of the stack pointer held with an address value of a stack pointer during a subsequent instruction execution; and when they are coincident with each other, judging the termination of execution of the second program.
