### Skip over Sections of Code

You can change the current execution point in a debugging session to another location in the current Source window, so that certain lines are executed again, or are skipped over when they otherwise would not be. From within the Source window containing the current execution point, do the following:

1. Scroll to the line number you want to jump to, if it is not already visible.
2. Issue the Jump to location command by doing one of the following:
   - Click on the prefix area for the line, click mouse button 1, and select Jump to location from the popup menu
   - Select the line, then select Run->Jump to location from the menu bar
   - Select the line, then press the N key, which is the accelerator for the Jump to location command.

Note that using Jump to location can cause unpredictable results if you jump outside the current function, jump over code that has side-effects (for example, calls to functions whose results are assigned to variables, or functions that change the contents of variables passed by reference), or jump into the middle of a block such as a for loop.
