Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

Duplicated Code
Duplicated code can lead to software that is hard to understand and difficult to change. The Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle states:
Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.
When you violate DRY, bugs and maintenance problems are sure to follow. Duplicated code has a tendency to both continue to replicate and also to diverge (leaving bugs as two similar implementations differ in subtle ways).
Tuning
This issue has a mass of 26.
We set useful threshold defaults for the languages we support but you may want to adjust these settings based on your project guidelines.
The threshold configuration represents the minimum mass a code block must have to be analyzed for duplication. The lower the threshold, the more fine-grained the comparison.
If the engine is too easily reporting duplication, try raising the threshold. If you suspect that the engine isn't catching enough duplication, try lowering the threshold. The best setting tends to differ from language to language.
See codeclimate-duplication
's documentation for more information about tuning the mass threshold in your .codeclimate.yml

Missing frozen string literal comment. Open
module Guides
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop is designed to help you transition from mutable string literals
to frozen string literals.
It will add the comment # frozen_string_literal: true
to the top of
files to enable frozen string literals. Frozen string literals may be
default in future Ruby. The comment will be added below a shebang and
encoding comment.
Note that the cop will ignore files where the comment exists but is set
to false
instead of true
.
Example: EnforcedStyle: always (default)
# The `always` style will always add the frozen string literal comment
# to a file, regardless of the Ruby version or if `freeze` or `<<` are
# called on a string literal.
# bad
module Bar
# ...
end
# good
# frozen_string_literal: true
module Bar
# ...
end
# good
# frozen_string_literal: false
module Bar
# ...
end
Example: EnforcedStyle: never
# The `never` will enforce that the frozen string literal comment does
# not exist in a file.
# bad
# frozen_string_literal: true
module Baz
# ...
end
# good
module Baz
# ...
end
Example: EnforcedStyle: always_true
# The `always_true` style enforces that the frozen string literal
# comment is set to `true`. This is a stricter option than `always`
# and forces projects to use frozen string literals.
# bad
# frozen_string_literal: false
module Baz
# ...
end
# bad
module Baz
# ...
end
# good
# frozen_string_literal: true
module Bar
# ...

Use crops.count.zero?

. Open
if crops.count == 0
- Read upRead up

This cop checks for usage of comparison operators (==
,
>
, <
) to test numbers as zero, positive, or negative.
These can be replaced by their respective predicate methods.
The cop can also be configured to do the reverse.
The cop disregards #nonzero?
as it its value is truthy or falsey,
but not true
and false
, and thus not always interchangeable with
!= 0
.
The cop ignores comparisons to global variables, since they are often
populated with objects which can be compared with integers, but are
not themselves Integer
polymorphic.
Example: EnforcedStyle: predicate (default)
# bad
foo == 0
0 > foo
bar.baz > 0
# good
foo.zero?
foo.negative?
bar.baz.positive?
Example: EnforcedStyle: comparison
# bad
foo.zero?
foo.negative?
bar.baz.positive?
# good
foo == 0
0 > foo
bar.baz > 0
Avoid comma after the last item of an array. Open
common_names: [crop_name,])
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for trailing comma in array literals. The configuration options are:
-
consistent_comma
: Requires a comma after the last item of all non-empty, multiline array literals. -
comma
: Requires a comma after last item in an array, but only when each item is on its own line. -
no_comma
: Does not requires a comma after the last item in an array
Example: EnforcedStyleForMultiline: consistent_comma
# bad
a = [1, 2,]
# good
a = [1, 2]
# good
a = [
1, 2,
3,
]
# good
a = [
1, 2, 3,
]
# good
a = [
1,
2,
]
Example: EnforcedStyleForMultiline: comma
# bad
a = [1, 2,]
# good
a = [1, 2]
# bad
a = [
1, 2,
3,
]
# good
a = [
1, 2,

# bad
a = [

Missing top-level class documentation comment. Open
class CreateGuide < Mutations::Command
- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
This cop checks for missing top-level documentation of classes and modules. Classes with no body are exempt from the check and so are namespace modules - modules that have nothing in their bodies except classes, other modules, constant definitions or constant visibility declarations.
The documentation requirement is annulled if the class or module has a "#:nodoc:" comment next to it. Likewise, "#:nodoc: all" does the same for all its children.
Example:
# bad
class Person
# ...
end
module Math
end
# good
# Description/Explanation of Person class
class Person
# ...
end
# allowed
# Class without body
class Person
end
# Namespace - A namespace can be a class or a module
# Containing a class
module Namespace
# Description/Explanation of Person class
class Person
# ...
end
end
# Containing constant visibility declaration
module Namespace
class Private
end
private_constant :Private
end
# Containing constant definition
module Namespace
Public = Class.new
