Refactoring: Refactorings/Inline Temp

From Notes
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Temporary variable is only used once and is a simple expression

Mechanics

  1. Find all references to the temp and replace them with the right-hand side of the assignment
  2. Test after each change
  3. Remove declaration and assignment of the temp
  4. Test

Example

Before

base_price = an_order.base_price
return (base_price > 1000)

After

return (an_order.base_price > 1000)
