The day I discovered goto in C I was like whaaaaaaat?
It's in C# as well; although, rarely used. Never understood the "goto" in C# or any other OO language.
Granted I was pretty guilty of using GOTO when I programmed for fun on the TRS-80 CoCo as a kid.

Did you RETURN?

1 If X= Y goto 10
10 Exit
1 If X= Y goto 10
10 Exit
HEY! THATS NOT FAIR!!! Get back here. :-)
I still have a working CoCo 3 sitting on the shelf. Tested it the other day the 60 inch TV. Certainly different <G>

What? Ok, that I have got to see: a Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer 3 hooked up to a 60" TV. :D

wow, I have'nt messed with a CoCo since about 1990.
My 1st computer was a 4k vic 20 then I bought a CoCo 2
My vic 20 had a casste tape drive lol that was a huge waste loading programs. had dual 5.25 drives on my CoCo.

Did I GOTO using RETURNs? :D See what I did there?
As a kid, I used GOTO a lot and never really understood the point of GOSUBS. Now, after being a professional software developer for over 10 years, and going through the Usborne programming books from the 1980s that they put onl for viewing (thanks to Nostalgia Nerd for providing the link to them in his video description on YouTube), I am finally beginning to see the vaule of GOSUB/RETURN: provides reusability in a structured programming paradigm, if done right. So, it would make sense that BASIC could move from being a structured paradigm to a procedural one fairly easily. Now-a-days, BASIC ha become more object oriented (e.g. Visual Basic).

I haven't seen it on a 60 inch tv yet, but footage from more recent Cocofest meetings show it running on modern led/lcd monitors which I thought was really cool. It's really impressive the amount of
development they are doing on Cocos to this day.

Cool! I cut my teeth on the Coco 2 and 3, still have both as well. First BBS I ever called was also on my Coco 2 :)
Great to seea nother Coco user.

I also started out on a CoCo 2, My brother and I ran our first BBS in 1988 on a CoCo 2 64k ram on a basic program written by my brother.
I recently found the code of his BBS software out in my garage.
I scanned it in pdf format and uploaded it to my BBS.
I also have almost every Rainbow magazine on my BBS in PDF.
I need to find a CoCo2 or 3 at a yard sale.
