## Early Return from Functions
|
|
|
|
Return early when result is determined to skip unnecessary processing.
|
|
|
|
**Incorrect (processes all items even after finding answer):**
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
function validateUsers(users: User[]) {
|
|
let hasError = false
|
|
let errorMessage = ''
|
|
|
|
for (const user of users) {
|
|
if (!user.email) {
|
|
hasError = true
|
|
errorMessage = 'Email required'
|
|
}
|
|
if (!user.name) {
|
|
hasError = true
|
|
errorMessage = 'Name required'
|
|
}
|
|
// Continues checking all users even after error found
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return hasError ? { valid: false, error: errorMessage } : { valid: true }
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Correct (returns immediately on first error):**
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
function validateUsers(users: User[]) {
|
|
for (const user of users) {
|
|
if (!user.email) {
|
|
return { valid: false, error: 'Email required' }
|
|
}
|
|
if (!user.name) {
|
|
return { valid: false, error: 'Name required' }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return { valid: true }
|
|
}
|
|
```
