@Paulo
Sorry to say this, but this was only because people had to pay

I have been part of the Java land since the beginning.

Just a short question. Usually goto statements are frowned upon
as being bad programming style (in textbooks at least). D has it
(thankfully) and I've used it, albeit sparingly. Sometimes goto
is simply the best and most efficient solution within a code
block (to avoid code duplication, unneces
