ElseExpression
Since: 1.4.0
An if expression with an else branch is basically not necessary. You can rewrite the conditions in a way that the else clause is not necessary and the code becomes simpler to read. To achieve this, use early return statements, though you may need to split the code it several smaller methods. For very simple assignments you could also use the ternary operations.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar($flag)
{
if ($flag) {
// one branch
} else {
// another branch
}
}

Define a constant instead of duplicating this literal "width" 4 times. Open

- Exclude checks
Duplicated string literals make the process of refactoring error-prone, since you must be sure to update all occurrences.
On the other hand, constants can be referenced from many places, but only need to be updated in a single place.
Noncompliant Code Example
With the default threshold of 3:
function run() {
prepare('action1'); // Non-Compliant - 'action1' is duplicated 3 times
execute('action1');
release('action1');
}
Compliant Solution
ACTION_1 = 'action1';
function run() {
prepare(ACTION_1);
execute(ACTION_1);
release(ACTION_1);
}
Exceptions
To prevent generating some false-positives, literals having less than 5 characters are excluded.
