Character classes in regular expressions are a convenient way to match one of several possible characters by listing the allowed characters or ranges of characters. If a character class contains only one character, the effect is the same as just writing the character without a character class.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, having only one character in a character class is usually a simple oversight that remained after removing other characters of the class.

== Noncompliant Code Example
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
/a[b]c/
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
== Compliant Solution
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
/abc/
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
== Exceptions
|
||||
|
||||
This rule does not raise when the character inside the class is a metacharacter. This notation is sometimes used to avoid escaping (e.g., ``++[.]{3}++`` to match three dots).
