The goto is rarely used like deep break, deep continue and for handling of non-exceptional errors (some stuff in this universe is noisy). When people who used it knew what they do then most common attempt to rewrite it without goto will result with bit longer and not much more readable code and little drop in efficiency. So why to bother? |

I'm certainly not arguing that goto should see frequent use, or should be a first choice in the vast majority of cases. Rather that if a goto improves clarity significantly, then it's not unreasonable to use one. I was mostly trying to provide some historical context for "Goto Statement Considered Harmful". |

So 9/11 happened not because of the actions of a group of terrorists but because of the Big Bang because everything is connected? Of course not because they are INDEPENDENT EVENTS. I guess you are unaware of the concept of INDEPENDENT EVENTS. There is a model for a universe which doesn't have INDEPENDENT EVENTS where everything is pre-ordained and free will is an illusion but I am not convinced by it especially when you let quantum mechanics muddy the water. /Flibble -- "Suppose it's all true, and you walk up to the pearly gates, and are confronted by God," Bryne asked on his show The Meaning of Life. "What will Stephen Fry say to him, her, or it?" "I'd say, bone cancer in children? What's that about?" Fry replied. "How dare you? How dare you create a world to which there is such misery that is not our fault. It's not right, it's utterly, utterly evil." "Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates a world that is so full of injustice and pain. That's what I would say." |

Would you say that there are flaws in Shakespeare, the Iliad and the Odyssey, and other great works? If you mean to suggest that there are no contradictions in the biblical texts, that's clearly not true, it was in fact the observation of contradictions that led to modern biblical scholarship.
