needless-bool (SIM103)

Derived from the flake8-simplify linter.

Fix is sometimes available.

What it does

Checks for if statements that can be replaced with bool.

if statements that return True for a truthy condition and False for a falsey condition can be replaced with boolean casts.

Given:

if x > 0:
    return True
else:
    return False

Use instead:

return x > 0

Or, given:

if x > 0:
    return True
return False

Use instead:

return x > 0
