Re: Good python equivalent to C goto

>Hello,

Any suggestions on a good python equivalent for the following C code:

while (loopCondition)
{
if (condition1)
goto next;
if (condition2)
goto next;
if (condition3)
goto next;
stmt1;
stmt2;
next:
stmt3;
stmt4;
}

Goto isn't providing much value over `if´ in this example. Python has
a pretty serviceable `if´ too:

while loopCondition:
if not (condition1 or condition2 or condition3):
stmt1
stmt2
stmt3
stmt4

I'm concerned that with all the focus on obj$func binding, &closures, and other not-so-pretty details of Prothon, that we are missing what is really good - the simplification of classes. There are a number of aspects to this simplification, but for me the unification of methods and functions is the biggest benefit. All methods look like functions (which students already understand). Prototypes (classes) look like modules. This will...

here's another interesting algorithmic exercise, again from part of a larger program in the previous series. Here's the original Perl documentation: =pod merge($pairings) takes a list of pairs, each pair indicates the sameness of the two indexes. Returns a partitioned list of same indexes.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
