• File size measurements show the distribution of size of files.
• Files are classified in four categories based on their size (lines of code): 1-100 (very small files), 101-200 (small files), 201-500 (medium size files), 501-1000 (long files), 1001+(very long files).
• It is a good practice to keep files small. Long files may become "bloaters", code that have increased to such gargantuan proportions that they are hard to work with.

• There are 961 files with 129,381 lines of code.
• 16 very long files (26,366 lines of code)
• 33 long files (23,428 lines of code)
• 119 medium size files (35,888 lines of codeclsfd_ftr_w_mp_ins)
• 160 small files (22,717 lines of code)
• 633 very small files (20,982 lines of code)

There are 15 files with lines longer than 120 characters. In total, there are 105 long lines.
