UnreachableCode

Unreachable code, sometimes called dead code, is source code that can never be executed during the program execution.

Subaspects

• UnreachableStatement
• UnusedFunction

Example

def func():
    return True

if func():
    a = {}
else:
    a = (i for i in range (5))
    print (id(a))

Importance

Unreachable code, makes the source code longer and more difficult to maintain.

How to fix this

Those pieces of code can easily be removed without consequences.
