If-goto Loop

Hey guys,

I have an assignment due for thursday and this is one of the questions

Here is a for loop:
1. for i equals 1 to 10
2. an instruction
3. another instruction

Rewrite this loop in if-goto language.

The problem is, I have no idea what if-goto language is :/ it;s really confusing me, hoping someone can offer me some help

if-goto is what it sounds like:

If something is true, goto somewhere else.

For example:

1. ask user for input
2. if invalid input: Goto 1
3. process input

This will keep asking the user for inputs until what they enter is valid.

In current programming practice goto should be avoided as it has a tendency to produce "spaghetti code" (code that's hard for humans to read/understand). It has it's uses and is a must in assembly/machine language, but you really shouldn't be programming at that level if you don't have to.
