| <p class='vspace'></p><h2>goto</h2>
 | |
| <p>Transfers program flow to a labeled point in the program
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p class='vspace'></p><h4>Syntax</h4>
 | |
| <p>label: 
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p class='vspace'></p><p>goto label;  // sends program flow to the label
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <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.
 | |
| </p>
 | |
| <p class='vspace'></p><h4>Example</h4>
 | |
| <pre>
 | |
| for(byte r = 0; r < 255; r++){
 | |
|     for(byte g = 255; g > -1; g--){
 | |
|         for(byte b = 0; b < 255; b++){
 | |
|             if (analogRead(0) > 250){ goto bailout;}
 | |
|             // more statements ... 
 | |
|         }
 | |
|     }
 | |
| }
 | |
| bailout:
 | |
|

| </pre>
