Meassuring lines of code is certainly not perfect, but IMO it's a lot more useful as a metric then gzipped bytes.
why they don't use word count??
I don't know. I suppose it's quite difficult to define a useful meaning of "word". I mean: foo=\xs->[y*2|y<-xs] Would count as one word, I suppose, though the number of tokens is far greater. Though I do think a word count as well, would hold more intuitive meaning than gzipped bytes. /S -- Sebastian Sylvan +46(0)736-818655 UIN: 44640862
