A call is useless when its argument is an integral value.
This checker finds calls that are useless and can consequently be removed from the code. This means that the code becomes simpler and more efficient, but might also be the sign of a programming bug.

public class MathExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
testDivide(13, 4);
}
private static double testDivide(int a, int b) {
return Math.floor(a / b); // "Redundant Call for Integral Argument (Java)" warning issued here
}
}
As reported in the Java documentation, the method floor returns the largest double value that is less than or equal to the argument and is equal to a mathematical integer. However, the actual parameter a / b is a division between integers (a and b are int), then already return a mathematical integer and the floor method will return the same value.
Check if the call is useless and delete it.
The following configuration file parameters affect checks for this warning class.
