How to write a "go to" -like statement in matlab

Hi. Need a lil bit of help here. I normally work with fortran that supported a "go to" statement. Is there anyway that i could do the same ("go to" - like statement) using matlab? e.g.

if solution ==1
<do program statements A >
<do program statements B >
elseif solution ==2
<do program statements A (as previously stated above) only>
%this is where i normally used a go to previous line statement in fortran to avoid writing the same program statement twice.
end

Appreciate any help u can give

I dont think there is 'goto' in MATLAB you could use

try
..
catch

or use the file exchange contribution http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/26949-matlab-goto-statement

Not very familiar with try ..catch statement. Would u mind to roughly show me how to apply try ..catch in the example given above? appreciate your help.

then it would be easier to use the File exchange submission I have linked to..

[Sean de Wolski]

no reason for goto or trycatch here/

Put the various statements in sub ffunction as Ilham has suggested.

Seems better to put statement A and B as seperate functions or scripts. Then you can call them whenever and wherever you want.
