Was it INTERCAL that had the COMEFROM <Line number> statement instead of
GOTO? I REALLY like the idea of a COMEFROM statement. I think python should
have a COMEFROM statement
It does - see http://entrian.com/goto/
(In case you doubt it: yes, it works, but note that it doesn't work at the
interactive prompt, only in a real source file.)
(The fact that I felt obliged to add the first paragraph on that page is
the funniest part of the whole thing. I really did have people genuinely
thanking me for the module, asking for features, asking for help with
using it, and so on.)
That module is. . .
a) impressive
b) very, very, wrong
c) both a) and b)
I think I'm voting for c). . .
Cheers,
Nick.
