However it's not necessary in python to do any of this, since you can
define nested functions that have access to the parent scope. Anytime
you need to clean up, just call the nested cleanup function and then return.
That is
as an oldtimer, I know that in complex code the goto statement is
still the easiest to code and understand.
I propose this solution using exception.
The string exception is deprecated but is simpler for this example.

The goto code is the simpler way to do it.
We are not talking about simple if-else, but let say 20 if-else.
Many nested if-else are more difficult to understand and do not fit
better the semantics.
let's see...
$ cd ~/svn/python25
$ grep goto */*.c | wc
2107
as mentioned 'in complex code the goto statement is still the easiest
to code and understand'.
The examples are very small and do not require that at all. I agree
it's ugly.
Just to show a way to do it.
A very few functions where I use goto in C or C# are a few hundred
lines of code, difficult

There are various ways to write your example in Python. For example
while loopCondition:
condition = 1
while condition:

Nasty code even for C... I've never used goto in C... Options:
convert the statements of next into a function, and put in an else

I think the parent post's pseudocode example was too simple to show the
real benefits and use cases of goto in C.

I think the most direct translation would be this:
Nevermind I forgot about the while loop and continuing on after it.
Guess the function doesn't quite fit this use case after all.
