Flip Comparison¶
Sourcery refactoring id: flip-comparison
¶
Description:¶
Moves variables from the right side to the left side of comparisons
Before:¶
if 1 == x:
do_x()
After:¶
if x == 1:
do_x()
Explanation:¶
It is a coding convention that when doing comparisons to a numeric constant, the number should be on the right and the variable on the left. Having things be consistent in this way makes the code easier to read.
