Abstract

In recent years, a number of program complexity metrics have been developed to measure various characteristics of computer programs [1, 3]. Included among these metrics are Zolnowski's composite measure of program complexity [4, 5] and McCade's cyclomatic measure of program complexity [2]. The present paper examines these two metrics and attempts to measure their correlation with a third metric assigned by the program's author. This metric has been called the psychological complexity or the intuitive complexity of a program.
