    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"

    Reduce the number of returns of this function 4, down to the maximum allowed 3.
    Open

        public function asString($format = 'RGB(%d,%d,%d)')

    Having too many return statements in a function increases the function's essential complexity because the flow of execution is broken each time a return statement is encountered. This makes it harder to read and understand the logic of the function.

    Noncompliant Code Example

    With the default threshold of 3:

    function myFunction(){ // Noncompliant as there are 4 return statements
      if (condition1) {
        return true;
      } else {
        if (condition2) {
          return false;
        } else {
          return true;
        }
      }
      return false;
    }
    

    Define and throw a dedicated exception instead of using a generic one.
    Open

                            throw new \Exception("Unknown special colour type");
    Severity: Major
    Found in lib/Weathermap/Core/Colour.php by sonar-php

    If you throw a general exception type, such as ErrorException, RuntimeException, or Exception in a library or framework, it forces consumers to catch all exceptions, including unknown exceptions that they do not know how to handle.

    Instead, either throw a subtype that already exists in the Standard PHP Library, or create your own type that derives from Exception.

    Noncompliant Code Example

    throw new Exception();  // Noncompliant
    

    Compliant Solution

    throw new InvalidArgumentException();
    // or
    throw new UnexpectedValueException();
