lintr (version 3.2.0)

list_comparison_linter: Block usage of comparison operators with known-list() functions like lapply

Description

Usage like lapply(x, sum) > 10 is awkward because the list must first be coerced to a vector for comparison. A function like vapply() should be preferred.

Usage

list_comparison_linter()

# will produce lints
lint(
  text = "lapply(x, sum) > 10",
  linters = list_comparison_linter()

  linters = list_comparison_linter()
)
