Is using goto a bad practice

[artella]

Hi Kevin,

Your point about having multiple classes is a very good one (in addition to "confusion factor" you mentioned and also time issue pointed out by SuperKoko). In the case of your gotos appearing in sequentially separated code, I think you should be able to recycle the same class. However in nested gotos, you could have some serious problems. For example if you have two gotos, and the inner goto refers to a point in the code appearing after the reference of the outer goto, then you couldn’t reuse the same class. So this “alternative” becomes, like you said, messier and messier.

Thanks.

Hi Treus,

I’m afraid I resurrected it. I thought that taking refuge in an old query would be the best way for me to ask a question on such an overdiscussed topic. It wont happen again
