Collect Property Usage
++++++++++++++++++++++

  Collect the level of usage of a property. A property is used in distinct methods. The level of usage is the ratio between the number of methods in which the property is used, divided by the number of total methods. 

In the example below, ``$p`` is used once. ``$q`` is used in two methods, while being used three times in total. 



The level of usage of ``$p`` is now 1 / 2 = 0.5; The level of usage of ``$q`` is now 2 / 2 = 1.

.. code-block:: php
   
   <?php
   
   class x {
   	private $p, $q;
   	
   	function foo() {
   		$this->p = 1;
   		$this->q = 1;
   	}
   
   	function goo() {
   		$this->q = 2;
   		$this->q = 3;
   	}
   }
   
   ?>
