Number Of Added Methods (NOAM)

Description:

NOAM counts the number of operations added by a class. Inherited and overridden operations are not counted. Classes without parents are not processed. The large value of this measure indicates that the functionality of the given class becomes increasingly distinct from that of the parent classes. In this case, it should be considered whether this class should genuinely be inheriting from the parent or if it could be broken down into several smaller classes.
