DevInspector-Code Analysis AI Tool

Example

Identifying a missing base case in a recursive function which might lead to infinite recursion.

Scenario

In a factorial calculation script, DevInspector would catch if the base case for 'n == 0' is missing, which is crucial to stop the recursion.

Example

Simplifying an overcomplicated logic that uses unnecessary conditional branching.

Scenario

DevInspector can suggest refactoring a script that uses complex if-else structures for calculating simple arithmetic operations into a more streamlined, readable format.

Example

Optimizing an inefficient sorting algorithm to reduce its time complexity.

Scenario

For a bubble sort implementation, DevInspector would point out its inefficiency for large datasets and could suggest a more efficient sorting algorithm like quicksort or mergesort.

Example

Highlighting security vulnerabilities like SQL injection points in database handling scripts.

Scenario

If a script constructs SQL queries directly from user input, DevInspector would identify this risky practice and recommend using parameterized queries to enhance security.

Example

Adding checks to ensure that inputs to functions are within expected bounds or formats.

Scenario

DevInspector would add a suggestion to a mathematical function to validate input types and ranges, preventing runtime errors and ensuring the function behaves as expected under all input conditions.
