in reply to (tye)Re: GOTO considered (a necessary) evil?
in thread GOTO considered (a necessary) evil?
It also avoids arguments with people who can't handle goto.
I'd agree with you, except I ran into at least one developer who thought that returns from the middle of subroutines were just as unreasonable as goto's. :)
I'm in the "if I can understand what it's doing, it's fine" camp, myself. The goto in the original message was pretty clear, as is your example.
