Sloc Cloc and Code

While not exactly the heart and soul of programming, code lines can be a useful metric sometimes. Sloc Cloc and Code is a console application designed to help developers with counting the physical lines of code along with comment and blank lines. Not only is the tool fast in providing statistical information about source code, but it features COCOMO calculations at the same time.
Generally speaking, COCOMO calculations are known for providing an estimation of the code complexity. Deriving from this advantage, the COCOMO method enables developers to make easier approximations regarding the total cost of the projects. In addition, the method is easy to implement with various factors and, since it works with historical data, it can provide more accurate details. Due to this fact and, by disabling the garbage collector, the app can quickly counter by a large margin.
The utility can come in handy in a variety of situations and especially when working with large chunks of data that include several programming languages. Thanks to this tool, developers can find out in a matter of seconds all languages used, number of lines for each, comments, files included as well as the estimations regarding the costs to develop, schedule effort and the number of people required.
