MC-Basic:GOTO
The GOTO statement is used to perform an unconditional branch to another section of code. It references a label that must appear in the code.
Labels are written as a name followed by a colon. Labels must appear on their own lines and they may be commented.
You can only branch within a program, event, function, or subroutine. The GOTO statement and the label must be within the same program block. The GOTO statement can be compared to the conditional branching statements, IF..THEN and SELECT CASE.
Syntax
GOTO <program label>
<program label>:
