[net.wanted.sources] Seeking program complexity tool

gam@amdahl.UUCP (G A Moffett) (09/13/85)

I am looking for any tools desgined for measuring the complexity
of C programs.  I understand there are some general algorythms
for this stuff; I wonder if any programs have been written for
this purpose.

I have studied a number of ``program complexity tools'' for C over the past few
years, and the only one with consistent accuracy was called ``wc''.

I also found that preprocessing the source nullifies this consistency:-)
