View Source Credo.Check.Warning.OperationWithConstantResult (Credo v1.7.10)

Basics

This check is enabled by default.

Learn how to disable it via .credo.exs.

This check has a base priority of high and works with any version of Elixir.

Explanation

Some numerical operations always yield the same result and therefore make little sense in production code.

Examples:

x * 1   # always returns x
x * 0   # always returns 0

In practice they are likely the result of a debugging session or were made by mistake.

Check-Specific Parameters

There are no specific parameters for this check.

General Parameters

Like with all checks, general params can be applied.

Parameters can be configured via the .credo.exs config file.
