consider-iterating-dictionary / C0201ΒΆ

Message emitted:

Consider iterating the dictionary directly instead of calling .keys()

Description:

Emitted when the keys of a dictionary are iterated through the ``.keys()`` method or when ``.keys()`` is used for a membership check. It is enough to iterate through the dictionary itself, ``for key in dictionary``. For membership checks, ``if key in dictionary`` is faster.

Problematic code:

FRUITS = {"apple": 1, "pear": 5, "peach": 10}


for fruit in FRUITS.keys():  # [consider-iterating-dictionary]
    print(fruit)

Correct code:

FRUITS = {"apple": 1, "pear": 5, "peach": 10}


for fruit in FRUITS:
    print(fruit)
