No goto Statement

• No goto construct to transfer control to an arbitrary statement in a method.
• Primary uses of goto in other languages:
  • Controlling outer loops from within nested loops. Java provides labeled break and continue.
  • Skipping the rest of a block of code that is not in a loop when an answer or error is found. Use a labeled break.
  • Executing cleanup code before a method or block of code exits. Use a labeled break, or the finally construct of the try statement.
