Are you sure we even need 'goto' anymore? Even at runtime? I mean back
around about 2002, I wrote some spaghetti code with nested loops and
goto's, but looking back now, I could have just used a simple boolean
to "double break" instead of "single break", sort of like:
for ( . . . )
{
bool double_break = false;
for ( . . . )
{
double_break = true;
break;
}
if ( double_break ) break;
}
I'm willing to bet . . . if any of you can provide a piece of C++ code
that relies on the use of 'goto', we'll be able to feed it into
ChatGPT and get the goto's replaced by simple status variables.
Can anyone provide some C++ code that really needs goto?
