### What it does

It checks for an unnecessary array length check in a logical expression.

The cases are:

* `array.length === 0 || array.every(Boolean)` (`array.every` returns `true` if array is has elements)
* `array.length > 0 && array.some(Boolean)` (`array.some` returns `false` if array is empty)

### Why is this bad?

An extra unnecessary length check is done.

### Examples

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```javascript
if (array.length === 0 || array.every(Boolean)) {
  // do something!
}
```

Examples of **correct** code for this rule:

```javascript
if (array.every(Boolean)) {
  // do something!
}
```
