Measuring code readability ?
28 May 2008Thinking of ways to measure code readability. How easy is it to read and understand a method, or class ?
Number of branches in a method ? more branches -> more complex hence a more complex method that is hard to read
Split the camel casing of a method/class into words and run some sort of word analysis to check if the words make sense ?
The analysis has to be automated, and run as part of CI ideally..
