Remarks:

• Depth: The depth is the maximum length of a node to the root entity. Lower scores are generally better.

• Inheritance: A level of inheritance defined by either one of specialization, instantiation, extension, importation, or implementation.

• Scoring: The maximum path length is determined for each entity in question.

Inherited public predicates:

 all/0  all_score/1  directory/1  directory_score/2  entity/1  entity_score/2  file/1  file_score/2  format_entity_score//2  library/1  library_score/2  rdirectory/1  rdirectory_score/2  rlibrary/1  rlibrary_score/2
