Line 21:

* Difficulty : <math>D = { \eta_1 \over 2 } \times { N_2 \over \eta_2 } </math>

* Effort: <math>E = D \times V </math>

The difficulty measure is related to the difficulty of the program to write or understand, e.g. when doing [[code review]].

Line 27 ⟶ 26:

The effort measure translates into actual coding time using the following relation,

* Time required to program: <math>T = {E \over 18}</math> seconds

Halstead's delivered bugs (B) is an estimate for the number of errors in the implementation.
