title: How do you measure a small, big, very big project?
body: <p>I am reading Code Complete as well as a couple of other programming books at the moment. The size of the project affects a lot of other parameters that you need to take heed of in planning, coding, automating tests, etc. I was wondering what people on SO generally use in the real world to categorize a project in its correct "weight class"?</p>
  
  <p>Is it lines of code? Number of external interfaces? Necessary pages of documentation?</p>
