Cyclomatic complexity is a measure of complexity not an estimation technique (although some people do use it as part of estimation). (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclomatic_complexity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclomatic_complexity) Calculating this involves working out the number of branches through the code, nothing to do with estimation. It is also very much in use today to analyse codebases, finding hotspots, etc.
