  actually, i taught C programming at a university in Sweden. :)
  i actually gave people bonus points if they used a goto and
  explained WHY it was better to do so, but, also, if they knew
  how to do it without the goto

  deeply nested loops are good.. and, goto's are perfect for
  exception handling.. stuff which the language kinda doesn't
  provide without using goto :) [standard C]
