ALTER COMMAND. “Although code can be generated by other code (metaprogamming), programs generally don’t change their own code as they run; this has the potential to devolve into a mess of difficult-to-track changes. However, some languages do allow programs to alter “their own script as it ran, such as with COBOL’s ALTER command.”
