Code action DR013 (Readability) Simplify negated logic
Description
When a logical expression is negated, it is often more readable to rewrite the expression using the inverted operator.
Example 1
Change:
NOT([Sales Amount] = [Budget Amount])
To:
[Sales Amount] <> [Budget Amount]
Example 2
Change:
NOT([Cost Amount] < [Sales Amount])
To:
[Cost Amount] >= [Sales Amount]
Why is Tabular Editor suggesting this?
Negated logic can be harder to read and understand than non-negated logic. By removing the negation (the NOT operator) and inverting the comparison operator, the code becomes more concise and easier to read.
