They find that smaller modules do not necessarily have lower error density. Errordensity can be a size-normalized indication of program quality for only the modules withmore than 500 lines of codes. Thus, they conclude that error density is not an effective way Page 11.1057.4to measure quality. Withrow16 analyzes
