								<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Tip</h4>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>The use of <em>goto</em> is discouraged in C programming, and some authors of C programming books claim that the <em>goto</em> statement is never necessary, but used judiciously, it can simplify certain programs. The reason that many programmers frown upon the use of <em>goto</em> is  that with the unrestrained use of <em>goto</em> statements, it is easy to create a program with undefined program flow, which can never be debugged.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</p>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p class='vspace'></p><p>With that said, there are instances where a goto statement can come in handy, and simplify coding. One of these situations is to break out of deeply nested <em>for</em> loops, or <em>if</em> logic blocks, on a certain condition.
