Question

what are c# methodes for calculating unadjusted metrics to adjusted metrics?

write down code as well.

Answer 1

Counting Function Point (FP):

F=14*scale

Scale varies from 0 to 5 according to character of Complexity Adjustment Factor (CAF). Below table shows scale:

0 - No Influence
1 - Incidental
2 - Moderate
3 - Average
4 - Significant
5 - Essential

Step 2:

Calculate Complexity Adjustment Factor (CAF):

CAF = 0.65 + ( 0.01 * F )

Step 3: Calculate Unadjusted Function Point (UFP).

TABLE (Required)

FUNCTION UNITS	LOW	AVG	HIGH
EI	3	4	6
EO	4	5	7
EQ	3	4	6
ILF	7	10	15
EIF	5	7	10

Multiply each individual function point to corresponding values in TABLE.

Step 4: Calculate Function Point

FP = UFP * CAF

Example:

Given the following values, compute function point when all complexity adjustment factor (CAF) and weighting factors are average.

User Input = 50
User Output = 40
User Inquiries = 35
User Files = 6
External Interface = 4

Explanation:

Step 1: As complexity adjustment factor is average (given in question), hence,

scale = 3.
F = 14 * 3 = 42 

Step 2:

CAF = 0.65 + ( 0.01 * 42 ) = 1.07 

Step 3: As weighting factors are also average (given in question) hence we will multiply each individual function point to corresponding values in TABLE.

UFP = (50*4) + (40*5) + (35*4) + (6*10) + (4*7) = 628 

Step-4:

Function Point = 628 * 1.07 = 671.96 

Code:

using namespace std;

  

// Function to calculate Function Point

void calfp(int frates[][3], int fac_rate)

{

  

    // Function Units

    string funUnits[5] = {

        "External Inputs",

        "External Outputs",

        "External Inquiries",

        "Internal Logical Files",

        "External Interface Files"

    };

  

    // Weight Rates

    string wtRates[3] = { "Low", "Average", "High" };

  

    // Weight Factors

    int wtFactors[5][3] = {

        { 3, 4, 6 },

        { 4, 5, 7 },

        { 3, 4, 6 },

        { 7, 10, 15 },

        { 5, 7, 10 },

    };

  

    int UFP = 0;

  

    // Calculating UFP (Unadjusted Function Point)

    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {

  

        for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) {

  

            int freq = frates[i][j];

  

            UFP += freq * wtFactors[i][j];

        }

    }

  

    // 14 factors

    string aspects[14] = {

        "reliable backup and recovery required ?",

        "data communication required ?",

        "are there distributed processing functions ?",

        "is performance critical ?",

        "will the system run in an existing heavily utilized operational environment ?",

        "on line data entry required ?",

        "does the on line data entry require the input transaction to be built over multiple screens or operations ?",

        "are the master files updated on line ?",

        "is the inputs, outputs, files or inquiries complex ?",

        "is the internal processing complex ?",

        "is the code designed to be reusable ?",

        "are the conversion and installation included in the design ?",

        "is the system designed for multiple installations in different organizations ?",

        "is the application designed to facilitate change and ease of use by the user ?"

    };

    int sumF = 0;

  

    // Taking Input of factors rate

    for (int i = 0; i < 14; i++) {

  

        int rate = fac_rate;

  

        sumF += rate;

    }

  

    // Calculate CFP

    double CAF = 0.65 + 0.01 * sumF;

  

    // Calculate Function Point (FP)

    double FP = UFP * CAF;
