Abstract
In an interesting paper, Laranjeira [3] describes a first attempt to u nderstand cost estimation within an object-oriented environment. While the presented approach presents many interesting and useful ideas, it is, unfortunately, marred by several mathematical errors pertaining t o statistics, exponential functions, and the nature of discrete vs. co ntinuous data. These are discussed here and more appropriate-correct p rocedures outlined.
