How to insert code the right way

Question

This is a question about how to insert code the right way when you have to insert a bunch of code or multiple lines.

Is there a better way than

-Insert the code

-Go trough every line and add 4 gaps with the space key.

I am looking for a much easier solution

Select the code you write in your post, and click on the fifth icon from the left, in the toolbar shown on top of where you write a post.

<?php
  if (is_admin($user)) {
    show_admin_flags();
  }
?>
