I think the majority is man hour. I actually handn't heard of lines of
code. I think that would be ridiculous, can you imagine. You get paid more
depending on your style:
If ($foo == "bar") {
$dofoo = fobar($foo);
} else {
$dofoo = foobar($bar);
}
Or
If ($foo == "bar")
{
$dofoo = fobar($foo);
}
else
{
$dofoo = foobar($bar);
}
I would never trust someone who charged by line.
I think in general it's about $100-$150/hour for programming/database work.
