Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

Avoid using undefined variables such as '$success' which will lead to PHP notices. Open
$this->log("ADOdb Query $queryString (S:$success) - ".count($this->Rows).' Rows', __LINE__, __FILE__);

UndefinedVariable
Since: 2.8.0
Detects when a variable is used that has not been defined before.
Example
class Foo
{
private function bar()
{
// $message is undefined
echo $message;
}
}

Remove error control operator '@' on line 332. Open
public function affectedRows()

ErrorControlOperator
Error suppression should be avoided if possible as it doesn't just suppress the error, that you are trying to stop, but will also suppress errors that you didn't predict would ever occur. Consider changing error_reporting() level and/or setting up your own error handler.
Example
function foo($filePath) {
$file = @fopen($filPath); // hides exceptions
$key = @$array[$notExistingKey]; // assigns null to $key
}
