pairwise-over-zipped (RUF007)#
What it does#
Checks for use of zip()
to iterate over successive pairs of elements.
Why is this bad?#
When iterating over successive pairs of elements, prefer
itertools.pairwise()
over zip()
.
itertools.pairwise()
is more readable and conveys the intent of the code
more clearly.
Example#
Use instead:
from itertools import pairwise
letters = "ABCD"
pairwise(letters) # ("A", "B"), ("B", "C"), ("C", "D")
