vulture - Find dead code
========================
vulture finds unused classes, functions and variables in Python code.
This helps you cleanup and find errors in your programs. If you run it
on both your library and test suite you can find untested code.
Due to Python's dynamic nature it is impossible to find all dead code
for a static code analyzer like vulture, because it ignores scopes and
scans only token names. Additionally some dynamic items that are not
explicitly mentioned in the code may be incorrectly reported as dead code.
