Comment : | 21. Vol. I, §4.2.4(d) seems illogical. The pertinent part reads: "Operator intervention or logic that evaluates received or stored data shall not redirect program control within a program routine. Program control may be redirected within a routine by calling subroutines, procedures, and functions." Essentially every useful program "redirect[s] program control" via "logic that evaluates received or stored data," and, of course, that data may have been received or stored as a result of "operator intervention," so it doesn't seem that that's what is meant. What is this section intended to mean?
