cyclomatic complexity
     
         A measure of the number of linearly
        independent paths through a program {module}.  Cyclomatic
        complexity is a measure for the complexity of code related to
        the number of ways there are to traverse a piece of code.
        This determines the minimum number of inputs you need to test
        all ways to execute the program.
