    What kind of concept are you talking about? That the labels are also used from the switch statement? That's certainly true but has nothing to do with goto. But you have been talking about that goto SOME_LABEL is different than goto case WHATEVER - which is wrong. I think you have never seen any assembler output from C code or MSIL from C#, just look at my example which will give you an impression of the MSIL generated from a switch-case in C#.

                Sure, it's on another discussion site[^], but that doesn't mean we can't also discuss it here. Personally, while it certainly doesn't fit in the "missing" category, I see them moving it closer and closer to a hybrid C#/JavaScript language with each new version.

                Co-routines or a better way to do single threaded faux-parallelism than perverting iterators.

                  Either you are incapable of understanding this or you just do not want to get this. Your statement that there are 2 gotos is wrong. From a language point of view using goto with some (arbitrary) label and with a case label is equivalent.

                    But you can't know what may be thrown by something it calls, so I don't see the point.

                    In Java, every function must declare all potential throws. The compiler looks down the call stack and makes sure that exceptions are either handled or declared in the throws. If not, it's a compilation error. That annoys many Java developers, which is why I think the feature should be optional. If it was optional, we could generate a warning on unhandled exceptions. IT would not be a compilation error like it is in Java. This wouldn't totally prevent any problems, but it would give developers a way to be more explicit about what exceptions can happen. For library designers this would be very helpful.

                                      Having a generic type constraint on operators. Something where T : +, -, >, < Or something. Or just provide one easy way to work with numerics, for example: Something where T : numeric After which you can use +, -, >, < etc. by default and T can be int16, int 32, int64, single, byte, double, decimal or an unsigned of those.

                                      It's an OO world.

                                      God yes, there is no reason not to expand generic constrains to include operators, and that would make my life soooooo much easier for so many things I'm working on :(
