cyclomatic complexity

cyclomatic complexity

The maximum number of linear, independent paths through a program. Cyclomatic complexity may be computed as: L - N + 2P, where - L = the number of edges/links in a graph - N = the number of nodes in a graph - P = the number of disconnected parts of the graph (e.g. a called graph or subroutine) [After McCabe]
