I read somewhere that a function (or method) should have a single point of exit (RETURN). Is this considered a general design principle, that should usually be followed?

I find that it is more complicated to code a function or method to have a single RETURN, but I also see that it may make cleanup (if required) easier.

TIA, Hilmar.
