Only Exceptions for Control Flow
Where It Started
At technical unconferences I like to start (and conclude) the day with some fun coding. After all, writing code is (still, in June 2025,) at the heart of software development. During SoCraTes Linz 2024 I proposed the first session to be a "Coding Fun session: Only use exceptions for control flow." I explained that it would be impractical but fun ;-) Using exceptions like that was an anti pattern but I wanted to see what would be possible.
