How can I post code within spoiler markdown?

Question

In a recent answer on a recent question there was code written within a spoiler. I edited the post a bit to format the markdown better, but I ended up with something that just looks... horrible...

How can code be written within a spoiler in posts?

What I ended up with was:

>! `somefunction`<br>
>!  &nbsp;&nbsp;`indented line`<br>
>!  &nbsp;&nbsp;`another indented line`<br>
>!  &nbsp;&nbsp;`return something`<br>
>! `end`

This shows as:

somefunction
  indented line
  another indented line
  return something
end

but I find that the markdown to accomplish that is really ugly.

Welp. This is the best solution I came up with. If you're okay with using <pre>, then this is probably the best.

>! <pre>
>! if(solution.SolutionBad == "possibly") {
>!     print "Code in spoilers!";
>! }
>! </pre>

Output:

 if(solution.SolutionBad == "possibly") {
     print "Code in spoilers!";
 }

If you put the closing </pre> on the last line of code, that will remove one extra blank line at the end.

>! <pre>
>! if(solution.SolutionBad == "possibly") {
>!     print "Code in spoilers!";
>! } </pre>

Output:

 if(solution.SolutionBad == "possibly") {
     print "Code in spoilers!";
 }
