goto statement
transfers execution to the point specified by label name.
goto and label statements must be within a
block
(a begin/end pair).
goto statement can be used to calculate a factorial,
as was done in the examples of for and while statements.
For example, to calculate 5!, you would enter
fact = 1
i = 1
begin
label loop
fact = fact * i
i = i + 1
if i <= 5 then goto loop
end
print fact
to which O-Matrix will respond
120
You can use the goto statement to jump out of a
for or while loop. If you enter
begin
for i = 1 to 5 begin
if i > 3 then goto done
print i
end
label done
end
O-Matrix will respond
