What is Estimating the Quality of Functional Programs: an Empirical Investigation about?

This paper describes an investigation into estimating the quality of functional programs. The work reported here is part of a larger, ongohrg study into a quautitative analysis of the effect of utilizing different programming paradigms on code quality. Before undertaking such a comparative analysis it was necessary to establish a baseline of quality indicators which could then be used as metrics for the remainder of the project. Thus the aim of the research presented here was to evaluate a set of suggested indicators corresponding to internal attributes by investigating the correlation between the suggested indicators and the desired external qualitytype attributes of the code. A method for the evaluation of the suggested metrics is discussed and the results of performing such an evaluation for functional programs are presented.
