The Cyclomatic Complexity is measured by the number of
	(&&, ||) operators and (if, while, do, for, ?:, catch, switch,
	case, return, throw) statements in the body of a class plus one for
	each constructor, method (but not getter/setter), static initializer,
	or instance initializer in the class. The last return stament in
	method, if exists, is not taken into account.

	Even when the Cyclomatic Complexity of a class is very high, this
	complexity might be well distributed among all methods. Nevertheless,
	most of the time, a very complex class is a class which breaks the Single
		Responsibility Principle and which should be re-factored to be split
	in several classes.
