What is the primary drawback of using the Source Lines of Code (SLOC) technique for estimating project effort, and how does programming language affect this metric?
Identify and list the four primary quantitative and human-based techniques used to estimate development effort in a software project.
What is the primary disadvantage of the Source Lines of Code (SLOC) estimation technique when applied to projects involving different programming languages?
Explain the language-dependency drawback of the Source Lines of Code (SLOC) estimation technique, using a comparative example of assembly language versus a high-level language.
