Code Metrics is the analysis of code by gathering statistics such as inheritance depth, lines of code (LOC), number of classes etc. and computes a maintainability index based on the gathered information. There are multiple tools and plugins available to obtain this information. The study of code metrics can help identify potential issues in large software projects.
