[previous] 2986 [next] This operation is redundant. The value of the result is always that of the right-hand operand.
Redundancy

This operation appears to be redundant because the right-hand operand can always be used instead.

For example: 


/*PRQA S 2017,2983,3198,3203,3408,3447 ++*/

void foo(unsigned int i, unsigned int j)
{
    0 | j;             /* 2986 */

    0xFFFFFFFFu & j;   /* 2986 */

    int k = 1;
    k * j;             /* 2986 */
}
