== Why is this an issue?
Initializing a variable to `undefined` is unnecessary and should be avoided. A variable will automatically be set to `undefined` if you declare it without initialization, so the initialization code is redundant in this case.
[source,javascript]
----
var foo = undefined; // Noncompliant: replace with var foo;
let bar = undefined; // Noncompliant: replace with let foo;
