Goto in Python

[konfab]

This is old, and should probably be in off-topic. But nevertheless, I present a GOTO module for Python

Adds the 'goto' and 'comefrom' keywords to Python.

The 'goto' and 'comefrom' keywords add flexibility to Python's control flow mechanisms, and allow Python programmers to use many common control flow idioms that were previously denied to them. Some examples are given below.

So how many of you want to obfuscate your beautifully written pythonic code?

GOTO! :twisted:

Haven't used that since writing batch files in DOS!

 

[Danielizimo]

Awesome! , will they implement on error resume next too ?
They should also consider porting it to Scala

If you use GOTO in code, the ghosts of Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage smash your face in with pick axe handles.

This is true. A Welsh computer scientist called Huw told me so in 1991. Welsh people almost never lie about such important matters.

Actually had to use goto in batch files a couple of months ago. But that was only time ever. Why you would want this Python though...? :wtf:

GOTO , no.

So the chick told her boyfriend to go to hell.

Thing is, he saw the command as harmful instead of the destination.
