okay welcome this is your host Brian
Miller want
I'm went be demonstrating the use
by source code line camera program and
let me bring them a web browser just
very quickly build
downloads page just see
where you contains pro just
ok here we go highlighted indeed
address bar the browser for the URL
virtually dinner work to go to my
downloads page you scroll down
the third program in this table
source code like counter currently at
version
10 10 can download their
and run the installer to very simple in
now setup script a new one up with this
icon on your desktop towards going to go
ahead with the program and as you can
see
around rather small browser the purpose
of the program is to apply now
software authors to get a
rough idea about how much effort
times been put into a software project
for multiple projects
by examine the number of lines of source
code
and course I say it's a rough metric
because
depart size use compare E the number
the link to the lines know the place
where you tend to terminate Allina codes
for
line a reason offers but you can
look at source code files anywhere from
C sharp you can look Visual Basic
see siege
bad C header files Java pass can now
a HK although it quite a few different
file extensions you could look at and so
what I want to do is I just want to
show you a few features program rather
quickly I want to
look at some projects that I have been
working on for the 2012 donation coder
mania now want to include black lines
and comments
auto-generated code in come but I've
actually written myself so I'm going to
select
the folders were I have us toward these
projects
and they are in my eye Visual Studio
2010 Projects folder
some legal down there good and I'm gonna
first ball
to open the found money project this is
one of the four
applications that are released this year
and you see
Council quickly and than 7,000 34 lines
up source code wanna go ahead number
used the grouping
box here had now because that's one of
the four projects
ballots like another folder this time
let's work
were rights school hi
hang me pro
cure hang missus another
the four projects that I released this
year so we can and we're gonna edit
to CTO then we're going to
lukewarm my prayer mine program I'm
Scott County at midnight headed to the
tow analysts house
its
let's look at this program that we're
currently using this look at the source
files for it
does so then we get down we can look
here
you'll notice bat
me drag this over so you can see this
you'll notice
there a look at this grouping its gonna
show me the actual lines
for each these four projects and
than it shows the total here 20 01773
lines
so when you're talking about lines of
source code there are two ways to
calculate their
there's a physical slok there's
a different kind as well and if you want
to
study that you can go to Wikipedia or
other sites that you may find
researching
and jizzed search for the term SPL
okay all capital letters like say to
rough measure rough metric leaking give
you an idea
how many comments your comments to
actual code ratio
was kinda interesting bits of data that
you may want to know about your programs
I hope to share this with anyone that
you think may find it useful
and hope that perhaps you yourself make
bad
program used one juror think
