Subject: Re: 10 lines?? I only needed 3 - That must be some ugly code

This entire discussion points out how suspect the concepts of "lines of code" and "lines of code per day per programmer" are, even though they are often quoted by software engineering experts. But things brings up a question: What is a reasonable way to measure the "length" of a computer program, and the "productivity" of a programmer?
