Program slicing

Program slicing is a technique used in computer programming to isolate specific parts of a program, known as "slices," based on certain criteria, like a variable or a function. This method allows developers to focus on relevant sections of code, making it easier to understand, debug, or optimize the program without sifting through the entire codebase. By highlighting only the parts that affect or are affected by a specific element, program slicing enhances clarity and efficiency in software development and maintenance.
