Computing results.
SLOC Directory SLOC-by-Language (Sorted)
1870 crtml php=1870
483 exports php=483
59 lab php=59
53 pgmrtools php=53
Totals grouped by language (dominant language first):
php: 2465 (100.00%)
Total Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) = 2,465
Development Effort Estimate, Person-Years (Person-Months) = 0.52 (6.19)
(Basic COCOMO model, Person-Months = 2.4 * (KSLOC**1.05))
Schedule Estimate, Years (Months) = 0.42 (5.00)
(Basic COCOMO model, Months = 2.5 * (person-months**0.38))
Estimated Average Number of Developers (Effort/Schedule) = 1.24
Total Estimated Cost to Develop = $ 69,671
(average salary = $56,286/year, overhead = 2.40).
