title: Is LOC correct parameter for project estimation?
body: <p>Is LOC correct parameter for project estimation?</p>
  
  <p>there are so many scenarios where complexity takes much more time for a single line of code,
  other than LOC what could be the suggested parameter for project estimation?</p>
  
  <p>As peoples are talking about functional point of program does it mean for use case related information?</p>
  
  <p><strong>i am trying to find out any solid base for full software developement estimation which can consist analysis, design, testcase preparation, and coding, please suggest?</strong></p>
