The code was developed to follow correctly the adiabatic changes of extremely supersonic preshock flows with a Mach number larger than 100 as well as very strong shocks. In calculations of the formation of a 1D Zel'dovich pancake, an energy accuracy of 1 percent is obtained for 32 cells per unit wavelength, and the accuracy reaches 0.01 percent as the number of cells approach 1024. It is shown that shocks are well resolved and separate cleanly the hot, dense, collapsed peaks from the cold, low-density, expanding voids.
