NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitUnlessBlocks - Write "if(! $condition)" instead of "unless($condition)".

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Conway discourages using "unless" because it leads to double-negatives that are hard to understand.  Instead, reverse the logic and use
       "if".

	   unless($condition) { do_something() } #not ok
	   unless(! $no_flag) { do_something() } #really bad
	   if( ! $condition)  { do_something() } #ok

       This Policy only covers the block-form of "unless".  For the postfix variety, see "ProhibitPostfixControls".

CONFIGURATION

       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
