How do I manually jump to a specific slide in Flexslider?

This is such a quick fix, yet very few places on the internet seem to know the 4 lined solution to this problem. If you are using the FlexSlider plugin, you may come across the scenario where you need to jump to a specific slide – no animations attatched. Just a good old fashioned goTo action.  I found that while my other search terms failed, looking for changing the flexslider settings after initialization had something to it.

This is how i initialized my flexslider:‍

$('#whyslider').flexslider({	
  animation: "slide"
  , slideshow: false
  , animationLoop: true
});
