Equivalent to "GOTO" to jump to different mfiles?

I am trying to write a code that will ask the user for an input, and depending on the input, different mfiles will be run. Say, for example, when this code runs, it will display: "Please input section code:" and then the user can input any value from 1 to 5, and if they input "1", a separate mfile that contains all the info for section 1 will run, for input "2", a different mfile for section 2, etc.

Is there something like "goto" that I can use in Matlab for this purpose?

EDIT: I figured it out nevermind!

NO. Why would you possibly need it? Learn to use MATLAB, instead of trying to use some other language inside MATLAB. There are many ways to do this. Simplest is a switch.

switch SectionNum
  case 1
    Sect1mfile
  case 2
    Sect2mfile
  otherwise
    error('the sky is falling!')
end

Just call the desired m-file in the corresponding branch. You can have as many cases as you want.

Or do the same thing using an if/elseif form instead.
