Do you find cyclomatic complexity a useful measure?

Question

I\'ve been playing around with measuring the cyclomatic complexity of a big code base.

Cyclomatic complexity is the number of linearly independent paths through a pr

Answer 1

After understanding what it means, I now have started to use it on a "trial" basis. So far I have found it to be useful, because usually high CC goes hand in hand with the Arrow Anti-Pattern, which makes code harder to read and understand. I do not have a fixed number yet, but NDepend is alerting for everything above 5, which looks like a good start to investigate methods.
