Good Use of GOTO

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

After hearing from both sides, I've come to the conclusion that the goto
being implemented is unnecessary. We are getting loop constructs that
handle most of what GOTO would be used for, aren't we?

   continue, exit, retry, etc...

These all lend themselves to maintenance, program flow, structure, while a
GOTO does not.

Can somebody show me a case (with sample code) where a GOTO would be
significantly better than using another construct? Also, please explain
why Euphoria would need GOTO if we add PCRE to the interpreter.
