a vote regarding goto statement
-
When I posted this goto statement[^] comment I didn't think it would grow as such. I think I touched a deeply controversial topic in the development world. I then suggested on CodeProject to vote regarding GOTO and they replied on me with this old vote[^]

It's a topic that has been "discussed" once too often. While it has its uses in procedural languages, it rarely has one in a modern OO language. Its use is discouraged simply because it makes it hard to follow the programs' flow, often resulting in what is known as spaghetti-code. A simple mind would summon that up as "goto is bad". The best practice nowadays would be ravioli-code. What controverse?

The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger. English doesn't borrow from other languages. English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

You just did that. Touched an open nerve of every developer.
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

It's Thursday, and the rain is light, so we must be playing with Tudor Court Rules then... So, I'll go with Chalk Farm

I tried that accursed spew - it is nothing short of foul. What sort of native-cuisine could possible consider its ingestion positive. It's a product of the UK? Oh.

What does the Geneva Convention have to say about that? Nothing good, I'll wager. Say. Isn't that war over? German cuisine - another mouthwatering allusion?
