How to use "goto" in Javascript

Question

Please, how can I make use of goto in Javascript, how do I create labels and how do I goto the labels created.

Imagine a case where user inputs a wrong password and my code asks the user if they wish to try again, if answer is true, how do I take the user back to the beginning to input password again.

Thanks

Answer 1

There is not goto in JS.
As Ore Adeleye said you should use a function to mimic the goto functionality.
This is how you create labels in JS 👇
outer: for(;;;){
....
inner: for(;;;){
if(condition){
break outer;
}
}
Labels are used with break and continue keywords only and other approaches are usually preferred.

Answer 5

Ore Adeleye thanks so much for this, it was a great help

Answer 6

Kevin Star thanks, can you write a full code so I can better understand how to make use of the keywords.

The function keyword actually did a pretty job, but am not yet very conversant with it, so using it was a bit sloppy.

Answer 7

var a = 0;
[lbl] beginning:
console.log("Demo Text!");
a++;
if(i < 424) goto beginning;
