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"

LongVariable
Since: PMD 0.3
Priority: Medium
Categories: Style
Remediation Points: 50000
Fields, formal arguments, or local variable names that are too long can make the code difficult to follow.
Example:
public class Something {
int reallyLongIntName = -3; // VIOLATION - Field
public static void main( String argumentsList[] ) { // VIOLATION - Formal
int otherReallyLongName = -5; // VIOLATION - Local
for (int interestingIntIndex = 0; // VIOLATION - For
interestingIntIndex < 10;
interestingIntIndex ++ ) {

Identifies private fields whose values never change once they are initialized either in the declaration of the field or by a constructor. This helps in converting existing classes to becoming immutable ones.
Example:
public class Foo {
private int x; // could be final
public Foo() {
x = 7;
}
public void foo() {
int a = x + 2;
}
