ever since those days GOTO has been considered bad style. It produces crazy and cumbersome code.

(This generalization is patently incorrect. *Bad* use of GOTO tends to create more spectacular problems in code organization than bad use of a number of other language features, which is why GOTO has earned its reputation. When used correctly, goto is almost a necessity for clean, understandable code in the face of certain flow complexities such as nested loops or multiple "fail, shared cleanup, return" situations within the same function.)
