class Rubocop::Cop::Lint::UselessAssignment
rescue, ensure, etc.
reassignments and properly handles varied cases such as branch, loop,
Currently this cop has advanced logic that detects unreferenced
assigned but unused variable - foo
The basic idea for this cop was from the warning of ‘ruby -cw`:
scope.
This cop checks for every useless assignment to local variable in every
