Constant on wrong side of comparison
Reports comparison operations where the constant value is on the wrong side.
Some coding conventions specify that constants should be on a specific side of a comparison, either left or right.
Example:
boolean compare(int x) {
return 1 > x; // Constant '1' on the left side of the comparison
}After the quick-fix is applied:
boolean compare(int x) {
return x < 1;

Here you can find the description of settings available for the Constant on wrong side of comparison inspection, and the reference of their default values.
You can suppress this inspection by placing the following comment marker before the code fragment where you no longer want messages from this inspection to appear:
//noinspection ConstantOnWrongSideOfComparisonnote
Actual comment syntax will depend on the code language you are working with
