zip-without-explicit-strict (B905)#
Derived from the flake8-bugbear linter.
What it does#
Checks for zip
calls without an explicit strict
parameter.
Why is this bad?#
By default, if the iterables passed to zip
are of different lengths, the
resulting iterator will be silently truncated to the length of the shortest
iterable. This can lead to subtle bugs.
Use the strict
parameter to raise a ValueError
if the iterables are of
non-uniform length.
Example#
Use instead:
