Statement seems to have no effect
58 check = await get_chat_blacklist(chat_id)
59 if check:
60 return check.count()
61 False
Description
The expression or statement is pointless and will not affect the program's execution. It should be removed.
It is recommended to remove the statement as it adds unnecessary complexity to the codebase.
Bad practice
x = input()
x == 3 # Line doesn't do anything, it can be safely removed
calculate_res(x)
Preferred:
x = input()
calculate_res(x)
