by LLM suggestionsThe Halstead Measure, evaluated after implementing LLM-suggested changes to Expertiza, demonstratedreductions in difficulty, effort, and time. All approved changes adhered to proper code design principlesand caused no errors in Expertiza. The Halstead difficulty, which indicates how challenging the code is toread or write, decreased by 9.66. The Halstead time, estimating the time required to implement and fullyunderstand the software, decreased by 2047.5 minutes. This reduction highlights the substantial additionaltime previously required to implement and comprehend Expertiza. Adhering to principles like methodinheritance and minimizing unnecessary operators and operands, the code now reflects improved designand therefore
