With different advantages and disadvantages.

Not in the area of program flow, but thow by the possibility to
create new variables on the fly hidden somewhere between procedural
statements, what is not possible in COBOL.
But there is no chance to fall through the end of a function
declared in C, and accidentally start executing the next function.
