Why use goto operator when there is comefrom:
COMEFROM was initially seen in lists of joke assembly language instructions (as ‘CMFRM’). It was elaborated upon in a Datamation article by R. Lawrence Clark in 1973, [1] written in response to Edsger Dijkstra’s letter Go To Statement Considered Harmful. COMEFROM was eventually implemented in the C-INTERCAL variant of the esoteric programming language INTERCAL along with the even more obscure ‘computed COMEFROM’. There were also Fortran proposals for ‘assigned COME FROM’ and a ‘DONT’ keyword (to complement the existing ‘DO’ loop).
On 1 April 2004, Richie Hindle published an implementation of both GOTO and COMEFROM for the Python programming language.[2] In spite of being released on April Fools’ Day, the syntax is valid and the implementation fully working (just not intended for serious use).
