Abstract
A computer which executes rules which are defined according to a language having a valid grammar. The computer comprises input means for receiving and temporarily storing a first source code representation of a rule; object code translation means for translating the first source code representation into a first object code representation executable by the computer; storage means for storing the object code representations of rules; discard means for automatically discarding from the input means the first source code representation upon the storing of the first object code representation in the storage means; source code translation means for translating the first object code representation into a second source code representation where the second source code representation has lines of text; edit means for editing the second source code representation by deleting, adding, or changing one or more of the lines of text of the second source code representation; second object code translation means for translating the second source code representation, as edited, into a new object code representation of the edited rule for storage in the storage means; and the discard means discarding t…
