Does "goto odds" mean start evaluating all cases after the "odds:" label? Meaning
that the below is equivalent to the above? I think this is what the original
poster was asking; if not, I'd like to ask it!
switch ($val) {
case 3 { print "three"; goto morecases }
case 4 { print "three"; goto morecases }
morecases:
case __%2!=0 { print "that's odd" }
case __%2==0 { print "that's even" }
}
