Description
In an older code blob of mine I came across this oddity:
for a, b, _ in zip(iter_a, iter_b, iter_c):
...
which should be simplified to
for a, b in zip(iter_a, iter_b):
...
by removing iter_c entirely. Turns out I had this pattern in two other places as well 🤦🏻♂️
Would this not be a useful idiom to look for and warn about? (Assuming _ isn’t used in the body of the loop…)
