no-else-continue / R1724

Message emitted:

Unnecessary "%s" after "continue", %s

Description:

Used in order to highlight an unnecessary block of code following an if containing a continue statement. As such, it will warn when it encounters an else following a chain of ifs, all of them containing a continue statement.

Problematic code:

def even_number_under(n: int):
    for i in range(n):
        if i % 2 == 1:  # [no-else-continue]
            continue
        else:
            yield i

Correct code:

def even_number_under(n: int):
    for i in range(n):
        if i % 2 == 1:
            continue
        yield i
