Prolog Metrics

Appeared in Volume 9/2, May 1996

Keywords: benchmarks, profiling.

I have developed a "Source Metrics" tool as part of my Development Environment for LPA MacProlog.

The tool counts goals, clauses, goals per clause, goals per predicate, and "tokens". The tokens are classed as operators or operands, and the basic Halstead Software Science derived metrics are calculated. All of these values are gathered on a "per window" basis.
