Although there have been times where a GOTO statement would have proved useful, I have found other ways to implement those tasks such as WHILE 1=1 DO... I always thought GOTO statements make a program very hard to debug, as you can literally jump to anywhere from anywhere at anytime. Following execution of the program then becomes a nightmare... at least with loops and functions there is some hint of order. (Don't get me started on recursive functions though....) I think with enough thoughtful planning you would not need GOTO statements. True. For new programs, GOTO may be unnecessary but when converting hundreds of old BASIC programs, it sure would come in handy! Tom L Tom L Cui bono? |
