Forget about goto, the latest version of C# introduced what's essentially comefrom.
Please don't link to medium articles. That page is terrible to visit.
Looks fine on Firefox on Android with uBlock Origin. 🤷♂️
I'm running exactly the same and it doesn't look fine on my end.
Huh. Maybe it's NoScript, then.
Could be. I'm getting forced to make an account and such. That's why I hate medium.
To be fair,
await
is a bit more likecomefrom
, and it's been around for a few releases now.async/await was introduced in version 4.5, released 2012. More than a few releases at this point!
How is
await
likecomefrom
, any more than threading is likecomefrom
? The variable context is preserved and you have no control over what is executed before theawait
returns.What...? That is a terrible idea.
It's scary as fuck, yeah, but, to be fair, it's only intended to be used by code generators, and it's quite awkward to use outside of them.
