goto
Perl supports a goto command. There are three forms:
goto
label, goto expr,
and goto & name.
In general, you shouldn’t need to use goto, which you’ll conclude if you do a
search for goto in the
comp.lang.perl.misc archives on http://www.dejanews.com.
The goto
label form finds the statement labeled
with label and resumes execution there.
It may not be used to go inside any construct that requires
initialization, such as a subroutine or a foreach loop.
The goto
expr form expects the expression to
return a label name.
The goto &
name form substitutes a call to the
named subroutine for the currently running subroutine.
