Code Inspection: Unnecessary block statement
Reports a block statement that is not used as the body of if
, for
, while
, do
, with
, or try
statements, or as the body of a function declaration. Starting from ECMAScript 6, JavaScript blocks introduce new scopes for let
and const
variables, but still free-standing block statements may be confusing and result in subtle bugs when used with var
variables.
