Code Inspection: Magic number

Last modified: 21 March 2023

Reports a "magic number" that is a numeric literal used without being named by a constant declaration. Magic numbers can result in code whose intention is unclear, and may result in errors if a magic number is changed in one code location but remains unchanged in another. The numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 100, 1000, 0.0 and 1.0 are ignored.
