Certain math operations are just silly and should not be performed because their results are predictable. In particular, ``++anyValue % 1++`` is silly because it will always return 0. Casting a non-floating-point value to floating-point and then passing it to ``++Math.round++``, ``++Math.ceil++``, or ``++Math.floor++`` is silly because the result will always be the original value. These operations are silly with any constant value: ``++Math.abs++``, ``++Math.ceil++``, ``++Math.floor++``, ``++Math.rint++``, ``++Math.round++``. And these oprations are silly with certain constant values: ||Operation||Value|| |acos|0.0 or 1.0| |asin|0.0 or 1.0| |atan|0.0 or 1.0| |atan2|0.0| |cbrt|0.0 or 1.0| |cos|0.0| |cosh|0.0| |exp|0.0 or 1.0| |expm1|0.0| |log|0.0 or 1.0| |log10|0.0 or 1.0| |sin|0.0| |sinh|0.0| |sqrt|0.0 or 1.0| |tan|0.0| |tanh|0.0| |toDegrees|0.0 or 1.0| |toRadians|0.0| == Noncompliant Code Example ---- public void doMath(int a) { double floor = Math.floor((double)a); // Noncompliant double ceiling = Math.ceil(4.2); // Noncompliant double arcTan = Math.atan(0.0); // Noncompliant } ----
