You can do the so-called binary search, which is
a fancy name for this method
code_1
code_2
code_n
code_m
then do
code_1
code_2
;; code_n
;; code_m
if it still doesn't work, problem is in 1 or 2, so
code_1
;; code_2
;; code_n
;; code_m
if it ... etc
And: the better you write the code to begin with, the
better this method will work :)
