Abstract
Software complexity is one of the natural systems complexity which measure the rate at which a
particular software is difficult to comprehend, edit, understand, manipulate and maintain. With various system
interfaces and complex requirements, the complexity of software systems sometimes grows beyond control,
making applications and portfolios too costly to maintain and difficult to improve. A complex software if left
uncorrected can run rambling in the developed code, leaving behind bloated, cumbersome, incomprehensible
and difficult to maintain applications. In this paper, complexity of two object oriented programming languages
(C++ and Python) were compared using some existing complexity measures such as lines of code (LOC) and
Halstead complexity measures. The results of the comparison showed that Python programming language is
less complex than C++ programming language.
