### What it does Checks for pattern matchings that can be expressed using equality. ### Why is this bad? * It reads better and has less cognitive load because equality won't cause binding. * It is a [Yoda condition](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoda_conditions). Yoda conditions are widely criticized for increasing the cognitive load of reading the code. * Equality is a simple bool expression and can be merged with `&&` and `||` and reuse if blocks ### Example ``` if let Some(2) = x { do_thing(); } ``` Use instead: ``` if x == Some(2) { do_thing(); } ```
