!short: label Label (target of a goto)
label: statement;
Any statement may be preceded by a label. Labels are only used as
targets for goto statements.
Notes: Any statement may have a label, however, labels are only
recognized by the goto statement. A label must be
followed by a statement, even if it is only the null
statement.
Statement labels within a function must be unique.
-------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------
for (i = 0; i < imax; ++i)
for (j = 0; j < jmax; ++i)
if (table[i][j] == value)
goto found;
printf("Can't find value in table\n");
exit(1);
found: statement;
