Re: GOTOs to the People - Discussion please!


My experience as a software lead shows me that too many programmers spoil
the application.
ASM and PLM coders do a better job all around because they understand
programming and the ramification of their code.
High level language coders do not know diddly squat about what they are
doing and just burb out code to make others with the milestone charts happy.

Bottom line - there should never be a version 3 !
If ther are significant improvement, it should be a diferent product.
But marketeers run the universe.

The higher level of coding, the faster the hardware has to be. THis is a
viscious cycle that only drains everyons purses.

Let's all go back to machine language please where the spaghetti is
tasty.
