How are dependencies such as external libraries counted? Some programming languages will "include" code while others will link "against" external code.

Not sure how they measure the lines of code. Are comments, headers, etc included or is it just the the code flow?

The number of LOC is nothing to boast about in my opinion. The simpler your codebase the easier it is to maintain, the easier it is to focus on what actually matters: the end product.
