Please all don't hate me too much ;-), but I HATE cycle programs. It never
fails I have to update one and have to use an ugly GOTO. I have never and
will never personally write one.

I find that:
dou (%eof(file));
read file myDS;
if (%eof(file));
leave;
endif;

if (not valid());
iter;
endif;
enddo;

is much easier to understand than GOTO. The GOTO doesn't always go to the
END, it could process stuff further down and I just hate trying to figure
out what it's doing.

Then again, I have the "If I can't do it in free, then I don't need it"
philosophy.
