For the sake of brevity, ``++self++`` should be omitted when it's not strictly required. === Noncompliant code example [source,swift] ---- class Car { var color: Int init(color: Int) { self.color = color } func fade() { self.color-- // Noncompliant } } ---- === Compliant solution [source,swift] ---- class Car { var color: Int init(color: Int) { self.color = color } func fade() { color-- } } ---- ifdef::env-github,rspecator-view[] ''' == Implementation Specification (visible only on this page) === Message Remove the "self" keyword.
