In my defense of the goto, I would like to make clear that I do not support its use to produce spaghetti. In general, muddled thinking, coupled with expediency, is what I think are the true precursors of spaghetti code. The goto is an innocent tool that can be used for good or evil.
The goto is a sharp, spiky dangerous tool that seduces people into thinking of using it far too often. It should be used with the same respect you approach beautiful well- armed people of questionable morals who you find attractive. --Scott David Daniels scott.dani...@acm.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
