Welcome to the SLOCCount Web for Debian Potato

Introduction to the SLOCCount Web for Debian Potato
This site offers statistics and numbers gathered together by SLOCCount. SLOCCount counts the number of source lines of code (by definition a line ending in a newline or end-of-file marker, and which contains at least one non-whitespace non-comment character) in software and uses the COCOMO model for calculating estimations of schedule, effort in man-months, average developers required and total cost of development.

Important note
Throughout this site, we are offering only estimations. There are several inaccuracies that make results only valid as an aproximation, being the most important that COCOMO - the model used for calculation schedule, effort and cost estimations - is targeted to proprietary development methods including design, coding, testing, documentation (both for users and for programmers), and a wrap rate for corporate overhead. However, we believe they are accurate enough to draw some conclusions and to compare with other systems as well as to see the evolution of the studied software. You may read the FAQ for further details.

How to use this site
This site has a clear structure that can be followed easily through its navigation bar at the left hand side of your web browser.
  • About allows you to deepen into the goals of SLOCCount and the research that is done in the Libre Software field.
  • Statistics is a place where macrostatistics are shown. This includes an ordered list of the used languages as well as an upper bound estimation of effort, scheduling and cost.
  • Packages contains a list of all the (source) packages and their statistics. Packages can be selected to view language and file statistics and effort estimations on them.
  • Graphs links several figures that may help to understand the nature of the software that is being studied.
  • FAQ: usually you will find here the answers that arise when you look at COCOMO and the numbers and figures it gives. Have a look at it before you contact the site maintainers.
  • Credits: people behind this site and the SLOCCount project.
  • A Search box allow you to find a given package by its name.
  • Language selection will offer results in your language (if available). If not, and if you would add support for any language you know please FIXME.
