[R] go or goto command

2007-01-10 Thread Thomas L Jones
Some computer languages, including C, have a go or go to command 
which can be used to shift control to a different part of a function.

Question: Does the R language have a corresponding command? (Yes, I am 
aware that it can be abused; but, in the hands of a good programmer, 
it is simple to use.)

No, it doesn't.

Nope. Only break, next, and return.
