# Flip Comparison

#### Sourcery refactoring id: `flip-comparison`

#### Description:

Moves variables from the right side to the left side of comparisons

#### Before:

```python
if 1 == x:
    do_x()
```

#### After:

```python
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.
