View Source Credo.Check.Refactor.ABCSize (Credo v1.7.0)
This check has a base priority of 0 and works with any version of Elixir.
explanation
Explanation
The ABC size describes a metric based on assignments, branches and conditions.
A high ABC size is a hint that a function might be doing "more" than it should.
As always: Take any metric with a grain of salt. Since this one was originally introduced for C, C++ and Java, we still have to see whether or not this can be a useful metric in a declarative language like Elixir.
