The metric calculation is based on the following article and calculates the number of methods per class
to measure the size of the classes in terms of its implemented operations.

See the adaptation of the paragraph about Number of Methods in the article:
... This metric is used to help to identify the potential reuse of a class. In general, the classes with
a large number of methods are harder to be reused, because they are more likely to be less cohesive
(Lorenz and Kidd, 1994). Thus, it's recommended that a class don't have a excessive number of methods
(Beck, 1997).
