    I guess if counting minified files, then that's where :p

    Maybe 10,000 in a .cpp file.

    But i remember seeing 10k+ a long time ago.

    All from real client projects.
    Css: +35000
    Js (before concat): +40000
    PHP: +11000

    Ps:
    I have worked as an APM consultant for years, so did see some crazy shit.

    A 5000 line conditional check. No jokes. The whole file is bigger.

    Large files are usually an indicator for bad code. There is always a way to break down your code, make it more modular, understandable and readable. Even css (sass). Just leaving this here... *Flying away*

    On github I found some one-file projects. I practiced on a 2000rows text editor project

    @starless this was the norm in a lot of legacy C/CPP I used to work in. There were attempts to spread it out to multiple files, I think it was something like save, save2, save3. Fortunately the new stuff was a bit more informed, but the old stuff still needed to work.

    We had to make a simple project of animations using GLUT and C++ in class. Some people's code went upto 15,000 lines. But mostly because of bad formatting and inefficient code.

    I have written a 50,000+ line xslt file before.

    I love it when someone asks for a change.
