goto proc

Format

goto node

Jump to the specified node in the current proc.

goto End
world << "ERR"
End
world << "The end"

This displays “The end”.

Note

goto should be used judiciously. It’s easy to fall into the trap of “spaghetti logic” where goto is relied on so much that it becomes too difficult to follow how the flow of code execution will proceed. Normally, you’ll want to use a construct like while() or for() loops, and break and continue statements. goto is for more complex situations that aren’t readily handled by any of these.
