[DUG] Productivity

[Jeremy Coulter]

Not only that, exactly how much of the code is written by the IDE??  i.e.
put a button on a form. Dbl click on it to open the onclick event, and go
showmessage('abc');
This will generate what, 1 line fo code for the declaration of the control,
1 line for the  procedure declaration, then 4 lines for the actual procedure
wrapper including the begin and end;   so that’s 6 lines of code, and you
only actually wrote.....ONE so IMHO, lines of code written in a RAD
enviroment means squat.

Seeing as not one of those lines of code could be worth money... no. 
Also. What you do in 1000 lines of code, could be done by another in 50.

And vice versa.

If x = 5 then
  Result := true else
  Result := false;

Or

Result := x =5;

Which is more efficient? Which is more productive? Lines of code tell you
nothing except that you will always refactor it down to a better set of code
As you become a better programmer.

How do others measure programmers productivity?

In my first year seriously doing Delphi (learning Delphi and programming
around 1/4 of my working days) I have written around 25,000 lines of .PAS
files in about 15 programs - are there any standard measures of
productivity?
