Visual Studio CodeConditional Complexity
Intro
- Conditional complexity (also called cyclomatic complexity) is a term used to measure the complexity of software. The term refers to the number of possible paths through a program function. A higher value ofter means higher maintenance and testing costs (infosecinstitute.com).
- Conditional complexity is calculated by counting all conditions in the program that can affect the execution path (e.g. if statement, loops, switches, and/or operators, try and catch blocks...).
- Conditional complexity is measured at the unit level (methods, functions...).
- Units are classified in four categories based on the measured McCabe index: 1-5 (simple units), 6-10 (medium complex units), 11-25 (complex units), 26+ (very complex units).
Conditional Complexity Overall
- There are 22,035 units with 268,738 lines of code in units (43.6% of code).
- 18 very complex units (3,407 lines of code)
- 130 complex units (13,936 lines of code)
- 973 medium complex units (46,549 lines of code)
- 2,223 simple units (54,963 lines of code)
- 18,691 very simple units (149,883 lines of code)
