Re:Go Statement Considered Harmful (2018) by eqvinox on Friday March 19, 2021 @06:07AM (#26511660)
I was simply making an observation on what the control flow looks like on a source code level, nothing more and nothing less. OpenMP is, as you say, designed for computation, hence the directives it provides.

The control flow is still majorly different from go routines, and the argument for this source code expression is IMHO the quintessence of the article. There simply is less to reason about if you have these constructs. With a go routine you still need a join somewhere, which makes it "unstructured" like gotos.
