029/**
030 * <p>
031 * Checks for assignments in subexpressions, such as in
032 * {@code String s = Integer.toString(i = 2);}.
033 * </p>
034 * <p>
035 * Rationale: With the exception of {@code for} iterators and assignment in {@code while} idiom,
036 * all assignments should occur in their own top-level statement to increase readability.
037 * With inner assignments like the one given above, it is difficult to see all places
038 * where a variable is set.
039 * </p>
040 * <p>
041 * Note: Check allows usage of the popular assignment in {@code while} idiom:
042 * </p>
043 * <pre>
044 * String line;
045 * while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
046 *   // process the line
047 * }
048 * </pre>
049 * <p>
050 * Assignment inside a condition is not a problem here, as the assignment is surrounded
051 * by an extra pair of parentheses. The comparison is {@code != null} and there is no chance that
052 * intention was to write {@code line == reader.readLine()}.
053 * </p>
054 * <p>
055 * To configure the check:
056 * </p>
057 * <pre>
058 * &lt;module name=&quot;InnerAssignment"/&gt;
059 * </pre>
060 *
061 * @since 3.0
