in thread (duplicate) Eek! goto?

That doesn't quite work. There are no breasks in the original, it falls through all cases below the starting point. Other than decrementing $num and getting into a !$num tests loops, I can't see how to convert that?

Examine what is said, not who speaks.

    Oh, okay. Replace last SWITCH with $num-- and goto SWITCH or merely $num-- and you'll fall through.
