Why doesn't JavaScript have a goto statement?
JavaScript has a goto statement, which is a reserved keyword. It isn’t popular since it is not needed in JavaScript. Generally, it isn’t considered a good practice to use a goto statement.
Using goto with JavaScript preprocessing is still considered good as shown below −
var a = 0; [lbl] beginning: console.log("Demo Text!"); a++; if(i < 424) goto beginning;
The above code gets translated like the following −
var a = 0; beginning: while(true) { console.log("Demo Text!"); a++; if(i < 424) continue beginning; break; }
