I noticed that IntelliJ IDEA show warning in the method<br>
java.math.MutableBigInteger#divideMagnitude<br>
here - <a href="https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/4f65570204e2d38415e7761bd81660b081eae882/src/java.base/share/classes/java/math/MutableBigInteger.java#L1536" moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">

It seems that condition is always 'true'<br>
<br>
if (rem.intLen == nlen) {<br>
<br>
'rem' and 'nlen' variables are not changed anyhow after
this<br>
assignment a few lines above:<br>
<br>
int nlen = rem.intLen;<br>
<br>
To make sure that it's really true, I've modified source
to include else branch:<br>
<br>
} else {<br>
throw new AssertionError("Condition 'rem.intLen ==
nlen' wasn't met.");<br>
}<br>
<br>
And all tests from "jdk/java/math" passed.<br>
<br>
<br>
Can we clean up the code to remove this condition? Code is
already<br>
complex enough and each condition makes its reading
harder.<br>
It was added as part of performance improvements in<br>
