A function point is a "unit of measurement" to express the amount of business functionality an information system (as a product) provides to a user.

A function point is a "unit of measurement" to express the amount of business functionality an information system (as a product) provides to a user. The cost (in dollars or hours) of a single unit is calculated from past projects. As of 2013, there are several recognized standards and/or public specifications for sizing software based on Function Point.

Engineering function points – Elements (variable names) and operators (. arithmetic, equality/inequality, Boolean) are counted. This variation highlights computational function. The intent is similar to that of the ed Halstead complexity measures. Symons, C. Demarco, T. "An algorithm for sizing software products.

Among various function point analysis methods, COSMIC-FFP is an approach more suitable for object-oriented systems and its application is relatively easy. How-ever, when a system is involved with some complex computation, COSMIC-FFP method does not provide a clear mechanism which adjusts the weighting of these raw function points. One can also use a more elaborated data unit called attribute. and it is equivalent to the normal definition of attribute in information systems.

7 FOREWORD Function Point Analysis has matured sufficiently nowadays that it is routinely used for performance measurement and estimating, not just within in-house Information Systems departments, but in contractual situations between businesses and their third-party IS suppliers. It goes without saying therefore that standards for FPA are vital, and any publication which helps broaden the understanding of this field, such as this Counting Practices Manual for Mk II FPA is to be welcomed.
