    🔒 No security concerns identified
    ⚡ Recommended focus areas for review

    Input Validation

    The input validation for array lengths in methods like validate_inputs! has been modified. Ensure that the new validation logic correctly handles edge cases and maintains data integrity.

    def validate_inputs!(arrays)
      raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if arrays.empty?
    
      arrays.each do |arr|
        raise TALibError, "Input must be arrays" unless arr.is_a?(Array)
      end
    
      sizes = arrays.map(&:length)
      raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if sizes.any?(&:zero?)
    
      arrays.each do |arr|
        raise TALibError, "Input arrays must contain only numbers" unless arr.flatten.all? { |x| x.is_a?(Numeric) }
      end
    end
    # rubocop:enable Metrics/CyclomaticComplexity
    # rubocop:enable Metrics/PerceivedComplexity
    Rubocop Disables

    Multiple Rubocop disables have been added for metrics like MethodLength and AbcSize. Review if these disables are necessary or if the code can be refactored to avoid them.

    # rubocop:disable Metrics/MethodLength
    # rubocop:disable Metrics/AbcSize
    def print_function_info(func_info)
    Test Coverage

    Some tests have been removed or modified. Ensure that the remaining tests provide adequate coverage for the functionality, especially for edge cases and error handling.

    describe "#div" do
      it "performs vector arithmetic division of two arrays" do
        result = described_class.div(first_price_set, second_price_set)
        expect(result).to eq([0.5, 1.0, 1.0, 0.8, 1.0])
      end
    
      it "returns array of same length as inputs" do
        result = described_class.div(first_price_set, second_price_set)
        expect(result.length).to eq(first_price_set.length)
      end
    
      it "handles division by zero" do
        array1 = [1.0, 2.0, 3.0]

    PR Code Suggestions ✨

    Explore these optional code suggestions:

    CategorySuggestion                                                                                                                                    Score
    General
    Explicitly define price flag order

    The setup_price_inputs method now uses TA_FLAGS[:TA_InputFlags].keys[0..5] to
    iterate over price flags. This is fragile as it assumes the order of keys in the
    hash. Consider explicitly defining the order of price flags to ensure consistent
    behavior.

    lib/ta_lib.rb [641]

    -TA_FLAGS[:TA_InputFlags].keys[0..5].each_with_index do |flag, i|
    +[TA_IN_PRICE_OPEN, TA_IN_PRICE_HIGH, TA_IN_PRICE_LOW, TA_IN_PRICE_CLOSE, TA_IN_PRICE_VOLUME, TA_IN_PRICE_OPENINTEREST].each_with_index do |flag, i|
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 8

    Why: The suggestion improves code robustness by avoiding reliance on hash key order, which is a good practice.

    Remove redundant empty array check

    The validation for empty input arrays is duplicated in validate_inputs!. The check
    raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if arrays.empty? is redundant since
    it's already covered by raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if
    sizes.any?(&:zero?). Remove the redundant check to avoid confusion and maintain
    clean code.

    lib/ta_lib.rb [349-356]

    -raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if arrays.empty?
     ...
     raise TALibError, "Input arrays cannot be empty" if sizes.any?(&:zero?)
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6

    Why: The suggestion correctly identifies a redundant check, improving code clarity and maintainability.

    Remove debug logging statement

    The puts "actual_size: #{actual_size}" statement in calculate_results appears to be
    debug logging. If this is not intended for production, consider removing it or
    wrapping it in a debug condition to avoid unnecessary output in production
    environments.

    lib/ta_lib.rb [446]

    -puts "actual_size: #{actual_size}"
    +# Remove or wrap in debug condition
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 5

    Why: The suggestion addresses a potential debug statement that should not be in production code, improving code quality.

    Possible issue
    Add division by zero behavior verification

    The test for handling division by zero should include assertions to verify the
    actual behavior when dividing by zero, rather than just checking array lengths.

    spec/ta_lib_spec.rb [71-73]

     it "handles division by zero" do
       array1 = [1.0, 2.0, 3.0]
       array2 = [1.0, 0.0, 2.0]
    +  result = described_class.div(array1, array2)
    +  expect(result[1]).to be_infinite
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 8

    Why: The suggestion adds important verification of division by zero behavior, which is a critical edge case that should be tested.

    8
    Add error handling for invalid types

    The set_input_parameter method's case statement has overlapping conditions due to
    missing else branches. This could lead to unexpected behavior if an invalid type is
    passed. Add an else branch to handle unexpected types.

    lib/ta_lib.rb [390-397]

     case input_info["type"]
     when TA_PARAM_TYPE[:TA_Input_Real]
       input_ptr = prepare_double_array(array)
       TA_SetInputParamRealPtr(params_ptr, index, input_ptr)
     when TA_PARAM_TYPE[:TA_Input_Integer]
       input_ptr = prepare_integer_array(array)
       TA_SetInputParamIntegerPtr(params_ptr, index, input_ptr)
     when TA_PARAM_TYPE[:TA_Input_Price]
       setup_price_inputs(params_ptr, index, array, input_info["flags"])
    +else
    +  raise TALibError, "Invalid input parameter type: #{input_info["type"]}"
     end
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7

    Why: The suggestion adds necessary error handling for unexpected input types, improving code reliability.

    7
    Add Bollinger Bands value verification

    The test for Bollinger Bands should verify the actual calculated values rather than
    just checking the structure of the result.

    spec/ta_lib_spec.rb [852-857]

     it "calculates Bollinger Bands" do
       result = described_class.bbands(close_prices, time_period: 5)
       expect(result).to be_a(Hash)
       expect(result.keys).to contain_exactly(:upper_band, :middle_band, :lower_band)
    -  expect(result).to match(upper_band: an_instance_of(Array), middle_band: an_instance_of(Array), lower_band: an_instance_of(Array))
    +  expect(result[:upper_band].first).to be_within(0.01).of(11.0)
    +  expect(result[:middle_band].first).to be_within(0.01).of(10.0)
    +  expect(result[:lower_band].first).to be_within(0.01).of(9.0)
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7

    Why: While the suggestion improves test coverage, the specific expected values (11.0, 10.0, 9.0) may not be accurate for all cases.

    7
    Add MidPrice value verification

    The test for MidPrice should verify the actual calculated mid prices rather than
    just checking the array structure.

    spec/ta_lib_spec.rb [1095-1098]

     it "calculates MidPrice over period" do
       result = described_class.midprice([high_prices, low_prices], time_period: 2)
       expect(result).to be_an(Array)
    -  expect(result.length).to eq(1)
    +  expect(result.first).to be_within(0.01).of(10.5)
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7

    Why: The suggestion adds value verification which improves test quality, though the specific expected value (10.5) may need validation.

    7
    Tighten HT Trendline constant test

    The test for handling constant price series in HT Trendline should verify the actual
    calculated trendline values.

    spec/ta_lib_spec.rb [950-953]

     it "handles constant price series" do
       constant_prices = Array.new(200) { rand(9.0..11.0) }
       result = described_class.ht_trendline(constant_prices)
    -  expect(result).to all(be_within(1).of(10.0))
    +  expect(result).to all(be_within(0.01).of(10.0))
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6

    Why: The suggestion improves test precision but the impact is moderate as it only tightens the tolerance range.

    - Modified the platform detection logic in `lib/ta_lib.rb` to include additional Windows variants (cygwin, mswin, mingw, bccwin, wince, emx) for loading the TA-Lib shared library.
    - This change enhances compatibility and ensures the correct library is loaded across a wider range of Windows environments.
    …b library
    
    - Eliminated the `TA_GetVersionString` function from `lib/ta_lib.rb` to streamline the library interface.
    - Updated the corresponding test in `spec/ta_lib_spec.rb` to reflect the removal, marking it as skipped for Windows due to lack of implementation.
    - These changes enhance the clarity and maintainability of the TA-Lib library by removing unused functionality.
