GOTO still considered harmful?
GoTo statements and alternatives in VB.NET
I'm a young programmer, so all my working life I've been told GOTO is evil, don't use it, if you do, your first born son will die.
Recently, I've realized that GOTO actually still exists in .NET and I was wondering, is GOTO really as bad as they say, or is it just because everyone says you shouldn't use it, so that's why you don't.
I know GOTO can be used badly, but are there any legit situations where you may possibly use it.
The only thing I can think of is maybe to use GOTO to break out of a bunch of nested loops. I reckon that might be better then having to "break" out of each of them but because GOTO is supposedly always bad, I would never use it and it would probably never pass a peer review.
What are your views? Is GOTO always bad? Can it sometimes be good? Has anyone here actually been gutsy enough to use GOTO for a real life system?
