Re: TIB: Goto's




Rene Kragh Pedersen:

Advantages
 - Much easier to oversee

	If you code it effectively it's not confusing.

 - The task can be split up between multiple programmers if desired

	Copy & Paste!

 - It is easy to modify a single subprogram. If you know what the
program is supposed to return, you can make all the changes you want in
it without affecting all the other code. Your main program relies only
on the output from your subprogram.
 - You always know where the error, if any, is, as you test each
subprogram independently.

	Do one part at a time code then check!

 - You don't have to search through 5k+ of code, a screen at a time, to
find a particular place.

	[ON] & GOTO or Graph-Link! Which reminds me all of the programs that I
did I did w/o the GraphLink... I bought it after I had programmed all
those... it was a pain.

 - Runs using (considerably) less memory.

	Programs running on top of programs is less memory when did that start.

Drawbacks
 - More memory usage (very few % though!)
	A very big draw back if you ask me!

But the point is I program my way you program your way. As long as the
gamers and end users are happy with the program/documentation/help then
all is good!
