Checks that the ABC size of methods is not higher than the
configured maximum. The ABC size is based on assignments, branches
(method calls), and conditions. See http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?AbcMetric
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_Software_Metric.

Interpreting ABC size:

* ``<= 17`` satisfactory
* `18..30` unsatisfactory
* `>` 30 dangerous

You can have repeated "attributes" calls count as a single "branch".
For this purpose, attributes are any method with no argument; no attempt
is meant to distinguish actual `attr_reader` from other methods.

This cop also takes into account `AllowedMethods` (defaults to `[]`)
And `AllowedPatterns` (defaults to `[]`)

Checks if the length of a block exceeds some maximum value.
Comment lines can optionally be ignored.
The maximum allowed length is configurable.
The cop can be configured to ignore blocks passed to certain methods.

You can set constructs you want to fold with `CountAsOne`.

Available are: 'array', 'hash', 'heredoc', and 'method_call'.
Each construct will be counted as one line regardless of its actual size.

NOTE: This cop does not apply for `Struct` definitions.

NOTE: The `ExcludedMethods` configuration is deprecated and only kept
for backwards compatibility. Please use `AllowedMethods` and `AllowedPatterns`
instead. By default, there are no allowed methods.

Checks for excessive nesting of conditional and looping constructs.
Deeply nested code is harder to read, understand, and maintain.
Extracting nested logic into methods improves clarity.

You can configure if blocks are considered using the `CountBlocks` and `CountModifierForms`
options. When both are set to `false` (the default) blocks and modifier forms are not
counted towards the nesting level. Set them to `true` to include these in the nesting level
calculation as well.

The maximum level of nesting allowed is configurable.

|===

Checks that the cyclomatic complexity of methods is not higher
than the configured maximum. The cyclomatic complexity is the number of
linearly independent paths through a method. The algorithm counts
decision points and adds one.

An if statement (or unless or ?:) increases the complexity by one. An
else branch does not, since it doesn't add a decision point. The &&
operator (or keyword and) can be converted to a nested if statement,
and ||/or is shorthand for a sequence of ifs, so they also add one.
Loops can be said to have an exit condition, so they add one.
Blocks that are calls to builtin iteration methods
(e.g. `ary.map{...}`) also add one, others are ignored.

Checks for methods with too many parameters.

The maximum number of parameters is configurable.
Keyword arguments can optionally be excluded from the total count,
as they add less complexity than positional or optional parameters.

Any number of arguments for `initialize` method inside a block of
`Struct.new` and `Data.define` like this is always allowed:

[source,ruby]
----
Struct.new(:one, :two, :three, :four, :five, keyword_init: true) do
  def initialize(one:, two:, three:, four:, five:)
  end
end
----

This is because checking the number of arguments of the `initialize` method
does not make sense.

NOTE: Explicit block argument `&block` is not counted to prevent
erroneous change that is avoided by making block argument implicit.

This cop also checks for the maximum number of optional parameters.
This can be configured using the `MaxOptionalParameters` config option.

Tries to produce a complexity score that's a measure of the
complexity the reader experiences when looking at a method. For that
reason it considers `when` nodes as something that doesn't add as much
complexity as an `if` or a `&&`. Except if it's one of those special
`case`/`when` constructs where there's no expression after `case`. Then
the cop treats it as an `if`/`elsif`/`elsif`... and lets all the `when`
nodes count. In contrast to the CyclomaticComplexity cop, this cop
considers `else` nodes as adding complexity.

A `case`/`in` branch whose pattern is a simple literal (e.g. `in 1`, `in "red"`, `in 1..10`)
or a constant/type (e.g. `in Integer`) and has no guard is just as easy to read as a `when`
branch, so it is discounted the same way. Branches with structural patterns (e.g. array,
hash, or find patterns), bindings, alternatives, or a guard add the full complexity of
a decision point.
