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"

      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;
      }
      

      Remove this commented out code.

      Programmers should not comment out code as it bloats programs and reduces readability.

      Unused code should be deleted and can be retrieved from source control history if required.
