In [2] Guiseppe Jacopini seems to have proved the (logical) superfluousness of the GoTo statement. The exercise to translate an arbitrary flow diagram more or less mechanically into a jump-less one, however, is not to be recommended. Then the resulting flow diagram cannot be expected to be more transparent than the original one.
