A Novel Coupling Metrics Measure difference between Inheritance and Interface to find better OOP Paradigm using C#

Mr. Narendra Pal Singh Rathore; Prof. Ravindra Gupta

A large numbers of metrics have been proposed for measuring properties of object-oriented software such as size, inheritance, cohesion and coupling. The coupling metrics presented in this paper exploring the difference between inheritance and interface programming. This paper presents a measurement to measure coupling between object (CBO), number of associations between classes (NASSocC), number of dependencies in metric (NDepIN) , number of dependencies out metric (NDepOut) and Number of children (NOC) in object oriented programming. A measurement is done for C# inheritance and interface programs. The metric values of class inheritance and interface prove which program is good to use and beneficial for C# developers.
