+### What it does
+Checks for `let`-bindings, which are subsequently
+returned.
+
+### Why is this bad?
+It is just extraneous code. Remove it to make your code
+more rusty.
+
+### Example
+```
+fn foo() -> String {
+    let x = String::new();
+    x
+}
+```
+instead, use
+```
+fn foo() -> String {
+    String::new()
+}
+```
