  2. Goto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goto

    Most languages that have goto statements call it that, but in the early days of computing, other names were used. For example, in MAD the TRANSFER TO statement was used. [64] APL uses a right pointing arrow, → for goto. C has goto, and it is commonly used in various idioms, as discussed above.

  3. Considered harmful - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Considered_harmful

    The original title of the letter, as submitted to CACM, was "A Case Against the Goto Statement", but CACM editor Niklaus Wirth changed the title to "Goto Statement Considered Harmful". [6] Regarding this new title, Donald Knuth quipped that " Dr. Goto cheerfully complained that he was always being eliminated."

  4. Unreachable code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unreachable_code

    Here, there are two successive goto fail statements. In the syntax of the C language, the second is unconditional, and hence always skips the call to SSLHashSHA1.final. As a consequence, err will hold the status of the SHA1 update operation, and signature verification will never fail. [5] Here, the unreachable code is the call to the final ...

  5. Switch statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement

    Switch statements come in two main variants: a structured switch, as in Pascal, which takes exactly one branch, and an unstructured switch, as in C, which functions as a type of goto. The main reasons for using a switch include improving clarity, by reducing otherwise repetitive coding, and (if the heuristics permit) also offering the potential ...

  6. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Alternatives to multilevel breaks include single breaks, together with a state variable which is tested to break out another level; exceptions, which are caught at the level being broken out to; placing the nested loops in a function and using return to effect termination of the entire nested loop; or using a label and a goto statement. C does ...

  7. Statement (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statement_(computer_science)

    Simple statements are complete in themselves; these include assignments, subroutine calls, and a few statements which may significantly affect the program flow of control (e.g. goto, return, stop/halt). In some languages, input and output, assertions, and exits are handled by special statements, while other languages use calls to predefined ...

  9. C Sharp syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_syntax

    The foreach statement is derived from the for statement and makes use of a certain pattern described in C#'s language specification in order to obtain and use an enumerator of elements to iterate over. Each item in the given collection will be returned and reachable in the context of the code block.
