Tree-structured programs
With this note I hope to bridge the gap between the adherents of structured programming and the devotees of the unrestricted goto. I describe a style of programming which combines the advantages of structured programming with nearly all the power of the ...
A case against the GOTO
Special issue on control structures in programming languagesIt has been proposed, by E. W. Dijkstra and others, that the <u>goto</u> statement in programming langauge is a principal culprit in programs which are difficult to understand, modify, and debug. More correctly, the argument is that it is possible to ...
