Method of estimating size and complexity of large computer program under development based on metric called "function mass." Simplification of Demarco's "function bang" metric. Size of completed program usually expressed in terms of number of lines of code (SLOC), shown in previous research to be highly correlated with amount of development effort and therefore important predictor of development cost. Proposed method of estimating ultimate size of program is intermediate product of continuing research on estimation of size and structured analysis of developmental software.
